How your body measures pressure and reacts to cold
In short: This lab walkthrough demonstrates the mechanics of human blood pressure measurement and explores how temperature fluctuations affect aquatic respiration.
The video provides a practical guide on using a sphygmomanometer to determine systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It also outlines the specific components required for a laboratory study on circulatory physiology.
Beyond human metrics, the lab examines environmental impacts on biology by measuring how a goldfish's respiration rate changes as water temperature is gradually lowered.
