In general, in the animal kingdom, the rate of the heart beat is somewhat proportional to body size. The larger the animal the slower the heart beat, the smaller the animal the faster the heart beat. Since women in general are smaller than men, then they tend to fall into this pattern and have a faster heart beat.

Normal heart rates are between 70-80 BPM and there is no physical difference in the

way the heart works in a male in comparison to a female.

The amount of blood is different from male to female. Males have more blood volume, therefore heart rate can be different. HR depends on many factors though including blood volume and hydration level, size of the person, and whether the individual has a sedentary lifestyle, or is active.

Men have hearts 25% bigger than woman, larger hearts can pump more blood than smaller hearts. And because the lung capacity in men is 25-30% higher than woman.

males generally have much stronger muscles in their hearts than that of a female. It requires less beats to transport the same amount of blood

The reason is that men have larger hearts and lungs, which allows more oxygen to be pumped into the arteries and distributed to the organs more efficiently.

because men's have larger heart which is easier for the volume of blood, and the larger the heart, the greater volume of blood that can be pumped to the rest of the body

Significant difference between male and female resting heart rate and activing heart rate?

There isn't an extremely big difference between male and female resting heart rate but you can certainly notice some difference. Males have a larger body mass causing their body to work harder to pump oxygen and nutrients throughout the body and pump CO2/waste out of the body. Where as females have a slightly smaller body mass, meaning their body doesn't have to work as hard as the males. The result of this is that Females do have a lower heart rate than males but not by a massive amount.
