equipment such as whirlpools.9 “Aquatic Physical Therapy” refers to active interventions performed in the water. The aquatic environment is used to provide weight relief to the body‚ antigravity positioning‚ and increased resistance as therapeutic tools. Aquatic PT also provides multiple sensory stimuli through buoyancy‚ relative density‚ water temperature‚ viscosity‚ resistance‚ and vestibular input. With joint loading forces greatly reduced in the water‚ aquatic therapy provides the opportunity

Hippos are also very well evolved for a semi-aquatic environment. The hippo has large‚ razor sharp canine teeth perfect for fighting. The canines of the upper and lower jaw grind together sharpening each other. When hippos fight using such sharp teeth‚ having thick‚ protective skin is very important. The skin of the hippo can be up to two inches thick. However‚ even with thick skin‚ hippos still get torn up in a fight. Normally having an open wound in an aquatic environment would lead to infection‚ but

Effect of caffeine on Daphnia (Water fleas) Introduction- In this study I am going to investigate the effect of caffeine on Daphnia (water fleas) heart rate. I shall use daphnia as they would never have been exposed to caffeine before‚ unlike a human‚ who may have already developed a high tolerance to it. Another reason is that Daphnia have a very translucent body; therefore‚ it is relatively easy to see their heart under a microscope‚ which makes it easier to count the number of heartbeats

Biodiversity of invertebrates found in leaf litter in the Solebury woods Introduction: We are trying to compare the biodiversity of leaf litter invertebrates in forested areas on each side of the horseshoe trail on Solebury School’s campus. Each area has significantly different ecological histories. Leaf litter invertebrates are essential to the forests wood web. At the base off the food web are the main producers which would be trees or shrubbery. Then there are the primary
