Crayfish Invertebrate Research Paper Crayfish are interesting animals to study. Through invertebrate research‚ experimentation‚ and observation‚ there has been much to learn about with these animals. There is much to know about these creatures‚ including their classification in the "animal kingdom." Anatomy as well as how the crayfish reproduce is an important aspect of these organisms. Perhaps the most important part of the crayfish is there ecology. Studying ecology alone can give substantial

The overall average for all the groups‚ there is a similar trend with a -7% change meaning the every test had the same outcome of the heart rate decreasing. There

Daphnia Experiment Report 1. Introduction Caffeine is found in many plant species‚ where it acts as a natural pesticide. It is found most commonly in cocoa‚ tea and coffee‚ but is also artificially added to some soft drinks such as cola to act as a flavour enhancer. When consumed by humans‚ caffeine works as a stimulant causing amounts of released neurotransmitters to be increased. High use of caffeine has been related with raised blood pressure‚ restlessness‚ insomnia and anxiety which‚ in

Effects of Alcohol‚ Caffeine‚ and Temperature on the Heart Rate of Daphnia magna Joseph Ezra Gallo BY124L MW 8:30-11:30 Introduction Ectothermic animals are animals whose body temperature is affected by their surroundings. This means that if the environment is cold the animal will be cold. If the environment is warm the animal will be warm. This is because the animal doesn’t have the capability of regulating its body systems to keep a constant body temperature. When an ectothermic animal is

An aquatic animal is an animal‚ either vertebrate or invertebrate‚ which lives in water for most or all of its life.[1] It may breathe air or extract its oxygen from that dissolved in water through specialised organs called gills‚ or directly through its skin. Natural environments and the animals that live in them can be categorized as aquatic (water) or terrestrial (land). Animals that move readily from water to land and vice versa are often referred to as amphibious. The term aquatic can in theory

Ligands: Examining the effects of pharmaceutical compounds on Daphnia magna physiology Abstract The following study was conducted in order to determine the effects of four different pharmaceutical compounds on the heart rate of Daphnia specimens. After basal heart rate was observed and computed‚ four different solutions each containing either an adrenergic‚ muscarinic‚ or nicotinic agonist or antagonist was tested against individual Daphnia. Observations were made through a compound light microscope

Daphnia‚ also known as the water flea are planktonic crustaceans that are found in lakes‚ ponds‚ and streams. They received “their common name from their jerky movement through the water” (Clare). They are also “very small‚ usually 2-5mm long‚ with an overall shape similar to a kidney bean” (Elenbaas). Daphnia play an important role in the freshwater food chains and serve as food for other freshwater organisms such as fish. They are also commonly used to test for chemical toxicity in water. Since
