Subsequently‚ _Daphnia_ was treated with different type of hormone and the effect on Daphnia heart rate was observed. It was investigated which substances act as stimulants and which substances act as depressant. Daphnia was treated with aged water‚ caffeine‚ ethyl alcohol‚ nicotine‚ and epinephrine‚ and their effect on heart rate of Daphnia was observed. The results are posted on table 1: Table 1: Average heart rate for Daphnia at pre-stimulus and post stimulus for different hormones: # OF TRY AGED WATER

the experimental hypothesis was accepted. These findings could be due to the negative phototactic response that occurs when they are exposed to visible light that are above 600 Mn (nanometers) that are also considered the color red. This shows that Daphnia have a greater phototactic reaction to red light than when exposed to white light. When compared to a similar study‚ the same result was found. It was reported that there was a significant difference in the Daphnia’s phototactic reaction when exposed

The Effects of Caffeine on the Heart Rate of Daphnia This lab was designed to show how caffeine affected the heart rate of daphnia after exposing them to different concentrations of caffeine for ten minutes. Caffeine is a stimulant‚ which‚ in humans‚ causes heart rates and blood pressure to increase. Its effects range from mild alertness to heightened anxiety and body tension. We wanted to see if caffeine affected the daphnia’s heart rate in the same way. We filled three containers with three different
