no but it can help circulation! It can improve circulation, if you think about it, if it helps with circulation i.e. improves it then the blood will circulate quicker so therefore the heart will pump faster but not a lot. I am going to be writing a paper on this subject in the next academic year. This subject seems to be a new one and one that could be useful to our equestrian athletes in the future.

What is the normal resting pulse for an adult horse?

The normal resting pulse for an adult horse is typically between 28-44 beats per minute. It can vary depending on factors such as age, fitness level, and breed. Regular monitoring of the horse's heart rate is important to detect any abnormalities.


Why does temperature affect heart rate in ectothermic organisms?

The fact that they can't sweat is just one example of how ectotherms are reliant upon temperature. But eating fecal matter, or having a smaller colon doesn't have anything to do with this. In reality, specialized heart muscle cells in an organism must depolarize and then send an action potential to the surrounding cells for the heart to beat. The depolarization process is dependent upon ions diffusing across a semipermeable membrane, and, because the rate of diffusion varies directly with temperature, the colder these specialized heart muscles get, the slower the heart will beat.This process of a beating heart is akin to ALL animals with a beatable heart. In the case of ectotherms, however, they are incapable of maintaining a warm body temperature, and, therefore, their heart slows down. In endotherms with severe hypothermia, the heart rate will slow as well, and, if it slows too much, the organism will die.
