One of the questions on my homework is why did your pulse rate decrease after you rested from exercising? Any help? There’s also a question that says what does your pulse rate tell you about what your heart is doing?
Thank you PetRatLover!!! But can you please answer my second question???
During exercise, you need more oxygen throughout the body. Your heart pumps faster and carriers the O2 in the blood. When finished, your heart slows down to accommodate the decreased need for oxygen distribution.
