Abstract The basic principle of Mendelian inheritance was studied using the fruit fly‚ Drosophila Melanogaster. A Cinnabar Brown female was crossed with Wild Type male. The flies were mated in a jar containing a nutrient medium and then placed in an incubator. The experiment was conducted over a period of 5 weeks. Cinnabar (cn) and brown (bw) are two loci in Drosophila with recessive eye colour mutations. Mutations in cn cause a bright red eye and mutations in bw cause a brown eye. Double mutants

Investigating the Effect of Caffeine on the Heart Rate of Daphnia Daphnia are extremely small aquatic invertebrates. They are transparent‚ so you are able to see their internal organs; this means it is easy to monitor their heart rate by observing them through a microscope [1]. Physiological results from caffeine consumption include the stimulation of heart rate‚ blood pressure‚ metabolism‚ body temperature and alertness. [2] In this practical investigation the aim was to determine whether the hypothesis
