Lesson Organisation This will depend on the number of microscopes you have and access to a healthy culture of Daphnia. Students can readily follow this procedure working in pairs. Because of the variability of results between individual Daphnia it is not appropriate to make conclusions from one set of results‚ so each pair (or group) of students should carry out more than one investigation to contribute to the class set. One option is to record a live video of a sample Daphnia‚ during a time

STROKE A stroke—also called a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or a brain attack—is an injury to the blood vessels of the brain that causes neurological malfunctioning. In the United States‚ as many as 87% of all strokes are caused by the sudden blockage of a cerebral artery. The resulting decrease in blood flow leads to ischemic damage in the region of the brain that is fed by the artery. These CVAs are called ischemic strokes. Most ischemic strokes are due to blood clots. The remaining 13%

It also shows in previous expirements that Alka Seltzer dissolves slower in colder temperatures of water rather than hotter temoeratures. Alka Seltzer is an antacid that contains aspirin. It is made in tablets that dissolve in water to give a fizzy reaction. The reason people have to use Alka Selzter is to relieve acid indigestion‚ stomach pain‚ heart burns‚ head pains‚ and any type of aching bodily functions. It is an antacid

HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY REPORT DAPHNIA Aim The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of temperature and various substances on the heart beat of Daphnia‚ a water flea. Introduction Daphnia belongs to a group of small‚ freshwater crustaceans of the order Cladocera commonly called water fleas. They are very suitable for laboratory studies due to the nature of their transparent exoskeletons. Hence‚ it is possible to watch Daphnia hearts without dissecting them. Daphnia is ectothermic and

patients with diabetes mellitus are recommended. The risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and the role of anticoagulation depend on factors such as age and the presence of comorbid conditions. Aspirin is controversial in regards to preventing stroke as a primary prevention. Aspirin‚ as well as other anti-platelet agents are highly effective for secondary prevention after a stroke or transient ischemic attack‚ so it is better for the patient to take after the stroke
