Heart Rate Task

Our class went outside today with jump ropes and stop watches today. The task was to check the heart rate per minute after jumping rope for one minute. The data is then graphed on a coordinate plane, and analyzed. Can you tell the dependent variable and the independent variable? Are there difference in the recorded heart rate?

SCIENCE (Ms. Byrd): Start bringing in 2-litre plastic soda bottle for rocket project. See Science blog for more details at http://cobblearning.net/pbyrd.
