Heart-rate
As I came near the ride/the line-up became shorter my heart rate increased more. I did not get any readings on my heart rate, but I did measure my heart-rate manually. At the top of the wooden roller-coaster and at the top of atmosphere my heart rate definately increased, as I panicked a bit because of  being so high up.

I think heart rate is affected by rides because we develop some anxiety, our body becomes more aroused and our body needs to deliver blood around much faster than usual, as a result of being nervous.

My breathing rate was affected by rides. At the end of the line up my heart rate was really slow and I was calm, but towards the ride I became more agitated and my heart rate increased. Rides like the wooden roller coaster, breakdance, and atmosphere made my heart-rate increase. However rides like the scrambler, enterprise, music express, and corkscrew did not make me panick because I am use to going on those rides, and ride them more often than the others.

Other physiological effects I experienced were becoming sweaty, feeling nauseated, obviously an increase in heart rate, and becoming unappetized. To explain these symptoms, the sympathetic system became dominant and helped our body deal with rides.
