HOW DOES ALCOHOL MAKE YOU DRUNK? Drinking alcohol can be similar to a drug addiction unless the consumption is being monitored and controlled. Once alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream‚ it quickly moves throughout the body causing changes in mood‚ feelings‚ and behavior. Most people drink in order to be affected by these changes. Depending on the age‚ weight‚ and gender of a person and how much someone may be drinking can determine how fast the feeling of being drunk can begin. People

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 period in which students count the heart beats.

effect of coffee on the heart rate of daphnia Aim: To find out the effect of different caffeine concentrations on heart rate in daphnia Independent variable: • Caffeine concentration Dependent variable: • Daphnia heart rate Controlled variables: • Size of daphnia • Habitat from which the daphnia is obtained • Temperature of the surrounding How the variables can be controlled: • Equally sized daphnia should be used in the experiment • All daphnia should be collected at a same place

the Reactions between Polyvinyl Alcohol and Borax in Making a Rubber Ball Introduction Chemistry‚ while usually thought of as being practiced mostly in labs‚ actually affects everyone‚ everywhere. Chemistry and chemical processes are constantly occurring. We are dependent on them. The air that we breathe‚ the food that we eat‚ and thousands of other simple and confusing things depend on chemistry. In this particular case‚ the relationship between Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and Sodium Borate (Borax)

Abby Goldschmidt Honors Biology 2° Mrs. Gempel September 3‚ 2015 Daphnia Lab Results Paper Abstract The goal of the study was to observe the effects of multiple chemicals on a Daphnia magna’s heart-rate compared to a control (pond water). The different chemicals were caffeine and alcohol. The heart-rate was the main variable in this experiment. The Daphnia’s heart-rate was observed for 15 seconds and then multiplied by 4 to show its heart-rate in one minute. This was repeated 4 times for each

5. Should it be illegal for a pregnant woman to consume alcohol? Consider the legal and health ramifications of your answer. They say one glass of red a wine is good for your health; however is it also healthy for women that are pregnant? Doctors surprisingly agree with the fact that woman can take a moderate amount of alcohol while being pregnant. Their recommendation of moderation is for the expecting mother to only consume 1-2 alcoholic beverages a day. They have done many test studies to

Pregnancy: The Effects of Alcohol and Substance Abuse on Fetal Development Natalie Fontanella Liberty University Online Abstract This paper examined the effects of alcohol and substance abuse on fetal development in expecting mothers. The critical periods of fetal development during pregnancy are reviewed and discussed in order to determine the effects alcohol and substance can cause during certain stages. In order to gain a more efficient understanding of the effects different substances

The purpose of this study is to understand the feeding rate of Daphnia magna. D. magna is a species of Daphnia that belongs to the suborder Cladocera (Ebert‚ 2005). They live in freshwater and feed on small‚ suspended particles in the water. They are filter feeders. Phyllopods‚ which are leaf-like appendages‚ provide a filtering apparatus for the collection of food. These structures beat to produce a constant current of water‚ allowing particles to be filtered by fine setae on the thoracic legs.

Daphnia are cold-blooded poikilotherms that rely on heat from the surrounding water to maintain their body temperature. An increase in the water temperature should equate to an increase in metabolic activity due to enzymes working at a temperature closer to their optimum level. However‚ once the optimum temperature has been exceeded‚ the enzymes will begin to denature. Hydrogen bonds‚ which keep the protein conformation‚ begin to break‚ causing a change in shape of the active site; substrates

that if Daphnia are placed in differently concentrated solutions of barium and calcium chloride‚ then the highest concentration of calcium chloride would affect them the most because of the production of hydrochloric acid and calcium oxide from the mixing of water and calcium chloride‚ two very dangerous acids‚ with the highest concentration having the biggest chemical reaction. Within five minutes of putting the Daphnia into the 10 (ppt) solution of calcium chloride‚ one or more of the Daphnia died
