    Shagun Mistry According to the experiment‚ the average normal heart rate of Daphnia is 20 heart beats per 12.94 seconds. There were six total trials done for Normal Heart Rate with 2 Daphnia (3 Trials each). The aim of this experiment was to measure the effect of neurotransmitters on the heart rate of Daphnia. When the adrenaline was added to the liquid around Daphnia and after a few seconds‚ its heart rate sped up. For example‚ during the first trial‚ the heart rate went
