effect on Daphnia heart rate was observed. It was investigated which substances act as stimulants and which substances act as depressant. Daphnia was treated with aged water‚ caffeine‚ ethyl alcohol‚ nicotine‚ and epinephrine‚ and their effect on heart rate of Daphnia was observed. The results are posted on table 1: Table 1: Average heart rate for Daphnia at pre-stimulus and post stimulus for different hormones: # OF TRY AGED WATER CAFFEINE ETHYL ALCOHOL NICOTINE EPINEPHRINE CONTROL

Effects of salinity on the survival of the Daphnia Introduction The Daphniidae daphnia is a freshwater crustacean from the branchiopod class that is common to most ponds‚ lakes‚ pools‚ streams and springs around the world. The water flea‚ as it is sometimes referred to‚ is very small in size growing to a length of less than ¼ inch‚ it has a flat back‚ a rounded belly‚ black round eyes and a pair of antennae (Kindersley‚ 2006). The Daphnia have leaf-like appendages used in respiration‚ filter

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

The Effect of Temperature and Epinephrine on The Heart Rate of Daphnia Leslie Orzetti-Gollhofer Gaby Macias INTRODUCTION The Daphnia is a Crustacean other known as the water flea. It lives in small bodies of freshwater. The Daphnia is ectothermic‚ meaning it controls its body temperature through external means. With this experiment we experienced first hand what the effect temperature has on a Daphnia’s heart rate. We also experimented what effect epinephrine has on a Daphnia’s heart rate.
Premium Hypothesis Epinephrine Heart rate
Epinephrine is a multipurpose drug. It is a hormone‚ neurotransmitter‚ and a medication. Its chemical formula is C9H13NO3. Epinephrine is used in emergency situations to treat anaphylactic shock‚ cardiac arrest‚ asthma attacks‚ and many others. It is one of the most powerful medicines in the class of vasopressors. It works by relaxing muscles in the airway and tightening blood vessels. Epinephrine can be used on adults‚ children‚ and elderly‚ however it is unknown if it can be used on those who are

Effect of physical training on the capacity to secrete epinephrine M. Kjaer and H. Galbo +Author Affiliations 1. Department of Medical Physiology B‚ Panum Institute‚ University of Copenhagen‚ Denmark. Abstract Epinephrine responses to hypoglycemia and to identical relative work loads have been shown to be higher in endurance-trained athletes than in untrained subjects. To test the hypothesis that training increases the adrenal medullary secretory capacity‚ we studied the effects of

Epinephrine Structural Diagram- page 72 [pic] About: - Epinephrine has several uses‚ including increasing ventilation of lungs through relief of bronchodilation‚ increasing cardiac output‚ increasing systolic blood pressure‚ dilating blood vessels involved in crisis response - Clinically‚ epinephrine plays a lifesaving role in countering the effects of anaphylactic shock. It relaxes smooth muscle‚ though at different receptors. Physical Properties: - high boiling points and melting

The Effect of Caffeine 1% and 2% on Daphnia magna’s Heart Rate Abstract: 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 cold‚ its heart rate will lower. When

The Effect of Alcohol and Caffeine on the Water Flea: Daphnia Magna Kristoffer Osuntuyi Daphnia Magna Abstract: In this experiment I will find the base heart rate of each water flea. The base heart rate is the control in my experiment. The variables in the experiment are alcohol and caffeine. After finding the control of the first flea I will surround it with alcohol. The second flea will go through the same process as the first flea did‚ except the variable will be caffeine. The purpose of
