Answer 3

You have two options - brachycardia and tachycardia - to describe when the heart is beating abnormally slowly or abnormally quickly, respectively.

So the first thing to realise is that a normal healthy heart rate for a normal healthy resting human is about 1 beat per second. This human's heart beat is about five times faster than that, which is way too fast to be healthy.

The question wants you to pick the right term to describe this condition.
