    To investigate the effect of different caffeine concentration on the heartbeat rate of Daphnia at room temperature. Introduction: Caffeine is found‚ and produced in many plant species to function as a natural pesticide‚ and as an inhibitor of seed germination of other nearby coffee seedlings to give it a better chance of survival. Caffeine is able to paralyze and kill certain insects upon feeding on the plants that produce caffeine. Coffee‚ tea and cocoa are common caffeine-containing

    Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate. Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out how different intensities of exercise effect the heart rate I will measure it in beats per minute using a polar heart rate monitor. Hypothesis: I predict that as I increase the intensity of the exercise I do‚ that my heart rate will increase. This is because as I exercise more intensely I will need more blood to my muscles to supply oxygen and take away carbon dioxide; therefore my heart is going to have to beat

    Every day your heart pumps blood through a vast network of blood vessels around and around your body‚ delivering food and oxygen to cells and removing waste. The pulse (heart rate) is the number of times a person’s heart beats per minute (bpm). The pulse is a rhythmical throbbing of the arteries as blood is propelled through them‚ typically felt in the wrists or neck. Your resting heart rate occurs when you become relaxed or comfortable. These are shown when sitting or lying down. The ability to

    Introduction: Heart Rate is defined as the amount of times a person’s heart beats in one minute. A resting heart rate is the person’s heart rate prior to any activity or exercise. As activity increases‚ the heart rate will increase in speed. An increased heart rate is essential as it replaces oxygen in the muscles that is used during said activity and gets rid of excess carbon dioxide through the blood stream. Blood pressure is the force of the blood pushing on the walls of the veins and arteries

    neurogenic hearts. The myocardial cells need neural input from the cardiac ganglion to be able to beat whereas the myogenic hearts of vertebrates will beat without neural input. The neural input sets the resting heart rate and contractile force of the neurogenic heart. The heart rate of the neurogenic and myogenic hearts is regulated by neurotransmitters. Hearts in vertebrates are excited by epinephrine and serotonin although with varied effects and inhibited by acetylcholine. Invertebrates’ heart rates

    The Human Heart Rate Aim: To study changes in the rate of the human heartbeat. Introduction: Blood is sent pulsing through the body’s veins‚ arteries and capillaries with each beat of the heart. The circulation of blood through the body delivers oxygen and food to the cells and removes wastes. The cells cannot survive if circulation stops for even a small amount of time. With an increase in body movement there is an increase in the cell’s energy use and the heart rate must increase to pump

    The affect of psychological stress on the heart rate. Introduction: The human body is incredible machinery that can adjust to stressful situations and react in a “fight-or flight” manner by temporarily shutting off nonessential‚ at the moment‚ immune and digestive systems. When the body is ready for a challenge‚ heart rate increases‚ blood pressure rises and glucose production intensifies to supply large amounts of energy. These metabolic changes are caused by release of stress hormones (catecholamine

    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 chemical

    You never feel more alive than when you are closest to death. But is it worth it? Is the stress-filled phenomenon that is adrenalin‚ coming straight from the adrenal glands travelling to the heart via significantly dilated blood vessels‚ stimulating a higher heart rate‚ while triggering a release of endorphins worth the risk? Worth the ‘risk’ that will all capture us eventually but still cripples fully grown men to a riverbank of tears and a prison of hidden emotional pain? Maybe‚ maybe not...
