Answer: Line graphs are commonly used when the independent variable (x-axis) is a continuous phenomenon. In this study the concentration of epinephrine is a continuous function. The line allows for interpolation (i.e., estimating values between the measured values). Section: The Science of Physiology Learning Outcome: 1.18 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analysis 55) Use Table 1.1 to graph the data appropriately. What can you CONCLUDE based on the new figure? Answer: Graphs should address the errors in Figure 1.1. This small sample suggests that an increase in epinephrine concentration increases the average heart rate of rats. Sprague-Dawley Section: The Science of Physiology Learning Outcome: 1.18 Bloom's Taxonomy: Application Use the table and graph below to answer the following questions. Table 1.2 Figure 1.2 56) Summarize the data shown in Figure 1.2. Answer: The systolic pressure of both genders increases with age. Under age 40, the systolic pressure of males is higher than that of females. After age 40, the systolic pressure of females is higher than that of males. The greatest rate of increase is from ages 50 to 70 in both genders. Blood pressure declines after age 70. Section: The Science of Physiology Learning Outcome: 1.18 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analysis 57) Referring to Table 1.2, what general trend in systolic blood pressures is seen as both men and women increase in age? Answer: The systolic pressure of both genders increases with advancing age. Section: The Science of Physiology Learning Outcome: 1.18 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analysis 58) Referring to Figure 1.2, at approximately what age do men begin to show higher systolic blood pressures than women? At what age does this trend reverse? Answer: From age 10 to 40, male pressures are higher; after age 40, female pressures are higher.
