TITLE: Effect of the caffeine on the heart rate OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of the caffeine on the heart rate of living organisms. INTRODUCTION: * Daphnia Daphnia are small‚ planktonic crustaceans‚ between 0.2 and 5 mm in length. Daphnia are members of the order Cladocera‚ and are one of the several small aquatic crustaceans commonly called water fleas because of their saltatory swimming style (although fleas are insects and thus only very distantly related). They

Description To investigate the effect on caffeine on heart rate of water fleas and to understand the risk of high level consumption of caffeine to the health of the human circulatory system and nervous system. Preview Diagram 1: Chemical structure of caffeine Image source: http://ismaastricht.wikispaces.com/file/list The images above show the chemical structure of caffeine which has a chemical formula of C8H10N4O2. Caffeine was named by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry

The effect of temperature on a reaction rate In this experiment I shall be investigating how temperature affects the rate of reaction Rates of reaction The Factors that affect the rate of reaction are temperature‚ surface area‚ concentration‚ catalysts‚ light and pressure Surface area – Surface area is the amount of solid surface that is available for reaction - Only affects solids so this will not affect our

Heart Rate Vs. Exercise & Gender Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to find out whether males or females of the same fitness levels had a higher increase in heart rate after performing the same exercise in the same amount of time. The hypothesis was that‚ with the same levels of fitness‚ females would have a higher heart rate. The main reason that this hypothesis was thought to be viable‚ was because females generally have higher heart rates than males due to their smaller heart size

Practical: The Effect of Concentration on Reaction Rate Aim: To use a simple reaction between sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid to discover concentration this determines how fast chemical reactions occur. Independent Variable: Concentration of hydrochloric acid (%) Dependent Variable: Time taken for chemical reaction to take place (sec) Hypothesis: My prediction is that the increased concentration of the thiosulfate will in turn lead to an increase in the rate of reaction. This

Brooke Strowd AP Biology Ms. Butler 28 January 2013 I. Title: Effect of a Catalyst on Reaction Rate II. Introduction: The basis of the experiment is the enzyme; an enzyme is a biological molecule that acts as a highly selective catalyst. By combining with a substrate‚ an enzyme is able to create a new product that helps the body function. (Ex. Lactose/Lactase) A substrate is a molecule an enzyme acts upon‚ the two combine at an area called an active site. This active site allows induced fit

initial rate of reaction. I will measure the effect of the enzyme in 5 different concentrations against the controlled variable of the reactant. The enzyme which will be used is different concentrations of potato and the reactant used will be Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen Peroxide which will be the buffer solution is a PH of 7.2. My hypothesis for the experiment is that as the concentration of the enzyme is increased the rate of reaction will be increased‚ producing oxygen at a faster rate. The results

An Interpretation of “On The Pulse Of Morning” The poem that Maya Angelou chose the read at President Clinton’s inaugural in 1993‚ delivers a message of hope. It uses the metaphor of morning or dawn to show that people can create their dreams and bring them to life. Maya Angelou has been a national celebrity since the reading of this poem. Her writings have a way of embracing people and successfully state her thoughts and emotions. “Pulse” is a call for hope and opportunity in part of our history

breathing rate will increase during exercise. It was hypothesised that if the amount of exercise (independent variable) increases‚ then the individual’s heart rate (bpm) and breathing rate (breaths-pm) (dependant variables) will increase when the environment in which the exercise is completed and a consistent and appropriate method of measurement for the dependant variables are kept constant. It was hypothesised that if physical exercise was increased‚ an individual’s heart and breathing rate would increase
