    Heart rate, Oxygen saturation, Respiration.

    Explanation:

    Heart rate:

    Heart rate is the number of times the heart beats per minute. The normal heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute

    At each beat of the heart, blood is pumped out of the heart. The blood carries oxygen to all the body tissues therefore, the frequency of blood pumped, has an effect on the level of oxygen being supplied to the body tissues.

    Oxygen Saturation:

    Hemoglobin in red blood cells bind with oxygen from the lungs and distribute it to the rest of the body. When there is a shortage of oxygen or a greater need for oxygen, unsaturated blood binds with more oxygen from the lungs and distributes it to the body for use as a compensatory mechanism for the increased need. For oxygen saturation to be optimal, the lungs function in supplying oxygen and the heart, in pumping blood towards the lungs.

    Respiration:

    Respiration is the movement of air into and out of the lungs. Respiration follows a normal rhythm and frequency. Respiration rates are different for different ages. For children younger than one; 30-60 breaths per minute, For adults; 10-20 breaths per minute. The respiratory rate decreases over the years between childhood to adulthood.
