Volume of Breath
Students use a spirometer to investigate how the amount of air moving in and out of the lungs changes with exercise.
Regulation of Body Heat
Students use two fast response temperature probes to look for evidence of homeostasis while experiencing changes in external body temperature.
Muscle Strength
Students use a pressure sensor to test grip strength and to investigate muscle fatigue.
