INTRODUCTION
Cardiovascular system is an organic system that permits blood to circulate and transport
nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormone and blood cells to body. Exercise places an increased
demand on the cardiovascular system. By exercising demand of oxygen supply is increases in the
muscles and metabolic process. Exercise such as; aerobics, endurance training have affects on
the system. Exercising lowers down the heart rate, amount of blood pumps enhances. Overall the
relation between exercise and cardiac system is positive for the fitness of body externally and
internally as well.
Anthropometry
Anthropometry is a science that deals with and universally applicable technique for
assessing the measurement of size, weight and proportions of the human body. It is a branch of
anthropology (Doyle and et. al., 2016).
Aim
The experiment is done by rat dissension that is because it is very likely to the human
body. The aim of the experiment is to evaluate the body system and the change in their
respective function after exercising (Swimming training increases cardiac vagal activity and
induces cardiac hypertrophy in rats, 2018).
Methods
Ethical approval
The method is approved by Ethics commission of the care and use of animals from the
Universidade federal de minas gerais. All the methods and procedures are conducted under the
regulation given by the UK national Council for the control of Animal Experimentation (Lavie,
and et. al., 2015). We make all the possible effort to use minimum number of rats in this
experiment.
Animals
In this experiment, we were used Adult male wistar rats and they subjected to three
various set of experiment in the total number of 50 rats that are 8 to 10 weeks old. The light,
temperature are as per the standard (Robinson and et. al., 2015).
