experiment we tested the effects of different adrenalin concentrations (0.001%; 0.01%; 0.1%) on the daphnia flea. The daphnia was placed on a slide with cover slip in order to examine its heartbeat by using the microscope. Aim In this Lab we will study the effect of different concentrations of adrenalin on the heart rate daphnia‚ the water flea. It is expected to recognize a threshold of the daphnia in its reaction the three different adrenalin concentrations‚ in terms of heart rate. Background

Daphnia and Additives Lab Purpose The purpose of this lab is to test what effect of Nicotine‚ Acetylcholine‚ Epinephrine‚ Caffeine‚ and Ethanol on an organism’s heart rate. Materials * Microscope * Eye dropper * Pipet * Cotton balls * Depression slide * Beakers * Daphnia * Water * Five additives: Nicotine‚ Acetylcholine‚ Epinephrine‚ Caffeine‚ Ethanol Procedure 1. Put on safety goggles. 2. Catch a living Daphnia. 3. Transfer to a depression

The overall average for all the groups‚ there is a similar trend with a -7% change meaning the every test had the same outcome of the heart rate decreasing. There

the heart rate of daphnia. Daphnia are water fleas that have a sort of heart that we can see in magnification. We can count the number of heart beats in a minute of a regular daphnia and try and get a new one with the same specifications as the old one that may have died. It is also a good idea to get a new one as we want to see how much it affects it from ordinary instead of adding the caffeine one after another. We have to be careful not to feed too much caffeine to the daphnia only a maximum of

Caffeine on Daphnia Heart Rate: Aim: To investigate the effect of caffeine on the heart rate in Daphnia. Hypothesis: My hypothesis is that as the caffeine content increases‚ the heart rate if the Daphnia increases. Equipment: * Culture of water flea – Daphnia * Caffeine of 5 different concentrations * Microscope * Counter * Cavity Slide * Pipettes * Stop clock * Distilled water * Test tubes * Petri dish Method: 1.

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

Daphnia‚ also known as the water flea are planktonic crustaceans that are found in lakes‚ ponds‚ and streams. They received “their common name from their jerky movement through the water” (Clare). They are also “very small‚ usually 2-5mm long‚ with an overall shape similar to a kidney bean” (Elenbaas). Daphnia play an important role in the freshwater food chains and serve as food for other freshwater organisms such as fish. They are also commonly used to test for chemical toxicity in water. Since

ethanol and salt have on the Daphnia magna’s heart rate Results The effect the various drugs caffeine‚ nicotine and epinephrine had on the Daphnia magna is displayed in Figure 1. After three sample trials were taken there was an average of 180 beats/min-1 ± 6.928 taken under normal conditions. The addition of caffeine caused an increase in the average heartbeat to change to 192 beats/min-1 ± 9.165 in the Daphnia magna tested. When testing the effect of nicotine on the Daphnia magna the average heart

The Effect of Temperature and Epinephrine on The Heart Rate of Daphnia Leslie Orzetti-Gollhofer Gaby Macias INTRODUCTION The Daphnia is a Crustacean other known as the water flea. It lives in small bodies of freshwater. The Daphnia is ectothermic‚ meaning it controls its body temperature through external means. With this experiment we experienced first hand what the effect temperature has on a Daphnia’s heart rate. We also experimented what effect epinephrine has on a Daphnia’s heart rate.
