Hypothesis

If Boys and Girls do the same activities,

then we think boys are going to be better because they grow taller than girls. Their lungs would become bigger and larger, which would give them more air. 

 

Research

Results

Before Boys : Average was 4

Before Girls: Average was 4.75

 

After Boys: Average was 4.75

After Girls: Average was 4.6875

 

The Boys surpassed the girls by 0.0625

( Which is not alot)

Analysis

7 ways to increase your lung capacity

1) Exercise and physical activity

> Powerful tool for enhancing your lung capacity

2) Quit smoking

> A major risk factor for reduced lung capacity

3) Breathing exercises

> Simple yet effective

4)  Eat a lung healthy diet

> Food with antioxidants protect damage by inflammation
