For humans, the conventional mechanical explanation given for blinking is that we need to moisten our eyes, clean the debris from the eye and refresh the eyes. Obviously, having a eyelid in front of the eye can also prevent…
Heart rate variability
By definition, heart rate variability is the time between each heart beat. This is called the R-R interval and shows the beat modulation of the sino-atrial node whose time variation is controlled by the autonomic nervous system. This matters because sympathetic (fight or flight) or parasympathetic (rest and digest) activity governs cardiac dynamics. A higher…
