Carbon Dioxide Understanding and Production in Elodea‚ Snail‚ and Goldfish Introduction This report discusses an experiment to study the rate of aerobic cellular respiration in aquatic organisms which are Elodea (aquatic plant)‚ Snail‚ and Goldfish‚ by measuring carbon dioxide production. Because ectothermic organisms (Elodea‚ snail‚ and goldfish) were placed in completely covered beaker‚ each organism would produce different amount of carbon dioxide. The objective of the experiment is to measure

LoggerLite program was used to measure the oxygen consumption of fish. Initially‚ the program was left open for at least ten minutes to warm up the oxygen probe in order to retrieve accurate data. While the probe warmed up‚ 200 milliliters of fish water was poured into a beaker and weighed with a balance. Next‚ two goldfish were captured from the goldfish aquaria and transferred to the beaker that already contained 200 milliliters of fish water. Then the same beaker with the 200 milliliter freshwater

mortalities were recorded in the control group throughout the experimental period. Table 1 show that the highest mortality rate occurred in Nile tilapia fish in the S. iniae+ C. albicans infected group (76.19%)‚ followed by those infected with S. iniae alone (61.9%) and then the C. albicans infected group (57.14%). Clinically‚ the S. iniae-infected fish exhibited loss of appetite‚ loss of equilibrium with erratic movement‚ swam near to the surface of water‚ detachment of scales‚ hemorrhages on the different
