Expert Solution

Step 1

Heart rate

Heart rate is the frequency of heartbeat measured bg the number of contractions of the heart per minute. The normal range of heart rate in adults is 60-100 beats per minute.

Electrodermal activity

The electrodermal activity is the property of human body that causes continuous variation in the electrical characteristics of the skin in response to the sweat glands. The amount of sweat glands varies across the human body, but the highest number of sweat glands present in hands and foot region.
