Note that these are not ALL of the important things to consider, but certainly are some of the more important aspects to
look at when writing up your report. There should be other components to your report though – if it looks like it is related, it

• Blood pressure homeostasis. Is heart rate (HR) homeostatically controlled (are there sensors for HR?), or is it
used to control blood pressure? What does it contribute to blood pressure (BP) homeostasis? How does the data
illustrate set point, dynamic equilibrium, antagonistic control? How does exercise affect HR? Why? How is this
related to BP control? Why is BP control important? What happens when BP is not regulated (diseases)?
