2. Introducción.
We were thinking that the opinion of people about a terror
movie might depend on the person’s age.
Therefore we make an investigation in the affect on the level of
fear on a person after a terror move.
To know more we research about 1Epinephrine.
We predict that the older people will be more vulnerable to fear
than a teenager.

3. Background Rehacer
Epinephrine is a hormone secreted by the 5 adrenaline
1
glands.
2
Epinephrine helps the body adjust to sudden stress by
shivering.
the glands inject epinephrine into the blood,the hart
pups more into the Nervous System.
This helps the person to become strong in a moment of
stress.
5. Method
1. Go to the nearest movie theater
2. Look for a terror film, it should be suspenseful and have B
classification. (Optional: you can watch the move)
3. Choose 15 people to test.
4. Measure their (pulse) heart rate by asking them to count the
beats of their hearts while you count too 10 [may use a
stethoscope].
5. Record the data in the chart
