Investigating the effect of coffee on the heart rate of daphnia Aim: To find out the effect of different caffeine concentrations on heart rate in daphnia Independent variable: • Caffeine concentration Dependent variable: • Daphnia heart rate Controlled variables: • Size of daphnia • Habitat from which the daphnia is obtained • Temperature of the surrounding How the variables can be controlled: • Equally sized daphnia should be used in the experiment • All daphnia should be collected at a same

Every day your heart pumps blood through a vast network of blood vessels around and around your body‚ delivering food and oxygen to cells and removing waste. The pulse (heart rate) is the number of times a person’s heart beats per minute (bpm). The pulse is a rhythmical throbbing of the arteries as blood is propelled through them‚ typically felt in the wrists or neck. Your resting heart rate occurs when you become relaxed or comfortable. These are shown when sitting or lying down. The ability to

Investigate the effect of on exercise on the heart rate. Aim: To find out if there is any relevant link between the amounts of exercise taken to increase a person heart rate. Equipment needed: Stop watch Screen volunteer P.E kit Calculator Record sheet Type of exercise: skip for few minutes ‚ then break in between and again repeat it once or twice. Method: First of all‚ we needed to take the resting heart rate of the person who is about to skip. Then‚ with the stopwatch one

The popular name for Daphnia is ‘water fleas’ because they resemble fleas in shape and movement. Unlike fleas‚ which are insects‚ Daphnia are crustaceans classified under the scientific order‚ Cladocera. The purpose of this experiment was to examine the alertness of Daphnia ambigua alertness at different temperatures. It involved the incubation of 30 Daphnia ambigua in three 100ml beakers. Exposing each beaker to a different temperature revealed that temperature of the surrounding environment had

Goldschmidt Honors Biology 2° Mrs. Gempel September 3‚ 2015 Daphnia Lab Results Paper Abstract The goal of the study was to observe the effects of multiple chemicals on a Daphnia magna’s heart-rate compared to a control (pond water). The different chemicals were caffeine and alcohol. The heart-rate was the main variable in this experiment. The Daphnia’s heart-rate was observed for 15 seconds and then multiplied by 4 to show its heart-rate in one minute. This was repeated 4 times for each chemical

COFFEE USE - HEART RATE RESEARCH PROJECT COFFEE USE - HEART RATE Part 1 The study used for this project is a nursing and health sciences study. One particular healthcare facility is trying to determine if it is a good idea to provide coffee in the waiting room for the patients. There are several other facilities that serve tea‚ coffee‚ and water‚ so this health care facility wants to determine if there is sufficient evidence to show that coffee increases the patient heart rates. The question

Aerobic Exercise on Heart Rate Introduction: Our bodies need to be in balance in order to function properly‚ and there are many ways the body maintains balance‚ or homeostasis. Homeostasis is the maintenance of nearly constant conditions in the internal environment. Our normal heart rate is an example of our body in homeostasis and any sort of change‚ or stimulus‚ can alter it. Exercise‚ adrenaline in the blood‚ and a low blood pH are all stimuli that increase the heart rate. Exercise‚ for example

To investigate the effect of different caffeine concentration on the heartbeat rate of Daphnia at room temperature. Introduction: Caffeine is found‚ and produced in many plant species to function as a natural pesticide‚ and as an inhibitor of seed germination of other nearby coffee seedlings to give it a better chance of survival. Caffeine is able to paralyze and kill certain insects upon feeding on the plants that produce caffeine. Coffee‚ tea and cocoa are common caffeine-containing

Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate. Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out how different intensities of exercise effect the heart rate I will measure it in beats per minute using a polar heart rate monitor. Hypothesis: I predict that as I increase the intensity of the exercise I do‚ that my heart rate will increase. This is because as I exercise more intensely I will need more blood to my muscles to supply oxygen and take away carbon dioxide; therefore my heart is going to have to beat
