EFFECT OF CAFFEINE ON HEART RATE LECTURER : MDM ZAKIAH BINTI ZAKARIA TITLE The effect of caffeine on heart rate OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of caffeine on heart rate of daphnia INTRODUCTION Caffeine‚ medically known as trimethylzanthine. Its chemical formula is C8H10N4O2. When in pure form‚ caffeine is a white crystalline powder that taste very bitter. 1The most common way of acquiring pure caffeine is the process of decaffeinating coffee and tea. Caffeine is found

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 Effects of Caffeine on the Heart Rate of Daphnia This lab was designed to show how caffeine affected the heart rate of daphnia after exposing them to different concentrations of caffeine for ten minutes. Caffeine is a stimulant‚ which‚ in humans‚ causes heart rates and blood pressure to increase. Its effects range from mild alertness to heightened anxiety and body tension. We wanted to see if caffeine affected the daphnia’s heart rate in the same way. We filled three containers with three different

effects of caffeine‚ alcohol and environment on Daphnia Magna. ABSTRACT In this experiment daphnia magna a semitransparent fresh water crustacean‚ are used to study the effects of water‚ alcohol and caffeine on heart rate. Daphnia was placed on a clean deep well slide. This was placed under the microscope and brought into focus on the best objective and light contrast. The heart rate was observed and counted within 15seconds and recorded on a table. Introduction Daphnia magna is

This means that if the environment is cold the animal will be cold. If the environment is warm the animal will be warm.

type of hormone and the 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

Investigating the effects of Caffeine on the heart rate of Daphnia Shrimp. Aim: In this experiment we are trying to find out how varying the concentration of caffeine can affect the heart rate of Daphnia shrimp. Prediction: I predict that caffeine will increase the heart rate of the shrimp . Introduction: I believe the results will comply with my prediction. Caffeine is a compound found in especially tea and coffee plants and acts as a natural pesticide. Caffeine is a central nervous system

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

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 plants widely

the Heart Rate of Daphnia magna Introduction The Daphnia magna‚ more commonly known as water flea‚ is indigenous to ponds and lakes in northern and western North America. This crustacean has an outer transparent covering called the carapace. The unique physiology of the water flea is useful in translational research allowing researchers to visibly study all of the bodily systems without causing harm to the specimen (2). Being classified as an indicator species‚ the Daphnia magna are extremely
