Blood Pressure Homeostasis Poster

The poster summarizes an experiment testing how exercise affects blood pressure homeostasis. The hypothesis was that runners' blood pressure would rise after stopping exercise. Two subjects ran two laps while their blood pressure was measured before and after. The results showed blood pressure rose quickly after exercise then slowly decreased below resting levels, disproving the hypothesis. Materials like the blood pressure cuff were not very functional for testing.
