Answer 1

heart rate is the number of contraction per minute ,known as heart beat per minute . it is the speed of heart . measured in bpm ( beats per minute ) . heart rate is often synchronized with pulse rate .

heart beat can vary according to situation (under pressure or relaxed ), state of body ( resting or working ) , need of the body ( level of oxygen ,carbon dioxide in blood ) etc .

in resting state average heart beat 60-80 bpm normally for an adult person . during sleep heart beat will be 50-60 bpm average.

in activity average heart beat will be 80-120 bpm

in resting state normal heart rate of a student would be - 66 , 70, 72 , 70 (approx) avg - 70 bpm

in activity( above said activity) ,heart beat of a student will be - 102 ,96 , 104, 104 (approx) avg - 102 bpm
