Basal heat production
Systolic blood pressure
Pulse rate
Basal heat production
Pubertal changes induce physiologic changes. The physiologic
functions that decrease in response to pubertal changes include
pulse rate and basal heat production. Blood volume, strength of
the heart, and systolic blood pressure increase with changes
occurring during puberty. Pubertal changes herald adulthood,
and therefore the heart increases in size and strength and the
systolic blood pressure increases to reach the adult rate.
