How are heart rate and blood preesure related? Does heart rate effect blood pressure and vice versa?

I%26#039;m doing a science project and this will help my research.



How are heart rate and blood preesure related? Does heart rate effect blood pressure and vice versa?

When the blood pressure is lower, the heart has to work harder and pump blood faster (increasing the heart rate).



When the blood pressure rises the heart generally doesn%26#039;t have to work as hard (decreasing the heart rate).



The response of the heart rate and blood pressure help to maintain your body%26#039;s homeostasis (the body%26#039;s normal environment) Hope this helps with your project :)



How are heart rate and blood preesure related? Does heart rate effect blood pressure and vice versa?

The pace at which the heart beats, or heart rate, is counted in heartbeats per minute. Generally, when heart rate increases, blood pressure rises. When heart rate decreases, blood pressure drops
