Introduction
The aim of this assignment is to see if male students are fitter then fmale students at Taminmin College. This will be done by collecting data such as: the resting pulse of three maths applications classes, their pulse after a minute of intense working out and the students pulse two minutes after their intense workout. This information will be used to measure each student’s level of fitness; fitness is measured by how quickly your heart rate drops after working out. The data will then be tabled and analysed in the three class groups, Meyering, Pizzutto and Myburgh. I first used a table to store the classes’ data, then I created a histogram per class to determine the spread of the data, I used a box plot to show my statistical summary. I then used the GOSCSC process to analyse and discuss my data; lastly I concluded my investigation and discussed important assumptions and limitations that could affect my investigation results.
METHODS
Each class conducted their own data stats by each individual calculated their resting heart rate (bpm) for one minute by counting every beat for thirty seconds then doubled their result to get the final answer. After finding their rest heart rate each individual done a intense workout for one minute and checked there rate at 0min after completing the one minute workout and then again after 2 mins of resting. After putting the data from each of the classes together we then continued on discussing different ways of calculating the difference in physical levels between males and females using

Indigenous males can expect to live to 67 years and females can expect to live up to 79 years.[i] The leading causes of death include cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, cancer, assault…

CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE 2 Dying from a broken heart—is it just an overused melodramatic aphorism, or could there be some medical truth in the old adage?

It is an easy thing, to equate a “broken heart” with the diagnosis of depression. What, if any, is the link between depression…

The tissue homogenates used were made by adding 1 gram of tissue to 20 ml of sucrose phosphate buffer. The buffer was composed of 250 mM sucrose, 50 mM NaPO4, with a pH of 7.4. This mixture was homogenized with…

Psychiatric Times that “in a survey of lay attitudes toward convulsive therapy, the majority of respondents who had seen One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest were "put off ECT" by the film (O'Shea and McGennis, 1983). This bad reputation was due to early statistics and results of “Electroshock Therapy” when it first came out in the 1930’s. The early patients regularly suffered from broken bones, severe memory loss, and related injuries due to the fact that muscle relaxants were not available at the time to…
The relationship between gender and the death rate is growing more significant as years continue to move forward. The average woman has a five year advantage over men.

This causes a lot of stress on a person.The real reason men die quicker is still unclear, but there are a plethora of hypotheses on the subject. A main reason for this phenomenon…
