Introduction In this experiment I aim to find out if caffeine has an effect on the heart rate of daphnia. Daphnia are water fleas that have a sort of heart that we can see in magnification. We can count the number of heart beats in a minute of a regular daphnia and try and get a new one with the same specifications as the old one that may have died. It is also a good idea to get a new one as we want to see how much it affects it from ordinary instead of adding the caffeine one after another

EXPERIMENT 1: THE HEAT CAPACITY RATIO FRANK KAYEYE 100886802 Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to calculate the heat capacity ratio γ for three gases find in three different classes. The three different gases and their classes are; helium which is classified as a monatomic gas‚ nitrogen which

Though it is a good conductor so will lose heat through to surfaces its touching but it shouldn’t matter because it will be touching air and glass which both are really poor conductors. Bubble wrap‚ foaming and cotton wool can be used as an insulator because it will trap heat in air pockets and air is a poor conductor of heat‚ hence it will be a good insulator. I shall not

FORMAL REPORT ON HEAT CAPACITY RATIOS OF GASES ABSTRACT This report discusses an investigation of the heat capacities of Helium‚ Nitrogen‚ and Carbon Dioxide. To accurately determine experimental values for the heat capacity of each gas‚ the heat capacity ratio was calculated from measurements of the speed of sound in each gas. An apparatus designed to measure the wavelength and frequency of sound waves in each gas was used to determine the speed of sound as a frequency was passed through each

Biotechnology‚ Mapua Institute of Technology ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ solubility class of various organic compounds are to be determined. The main objective of the experiment is to identify an unknown compound through the use of preliminary tests such as examination of physical state‚ color‚ odor‚ and ignition properties. Also‚ solubility tests were used to further examine an unknown compound’s solubility class. In this experiment‚ the apparatus used are micro test tubes and droppers for mixing

react in various ways when exposed to heat. The amount of energy necessary to heat a certain amount of water by one degree is different than that of another liquid or substance. The technical term used to determine this characteristic is called heat capacity or specific heat capacity. The purpose of this experiment is to find the heat capacity of water‚ orange juice‚ and olive oil. A couple of very specific equipment is needed in order to complete this experiment‚ such as: a calorimeter‚ a multimeter

HEAT AND DEHYDRATION LITERATURE REVIEWS 1 Literature Review #1 By Josh Schreck A Review of “Exerciseinduced dehydration with and without environmental heat stress results in increased oxidative stress” Summary: This experiment and its results are very important for understanding the effect of heat on dehydration and their relationship. Many 90minute cycling trials were performed‚ with different combinations of temperature and hydration status. While all trials presented cellular stress

Griffith’s experiment‚ reported in 1928 by Frederick Griffith‚[1] was one of the first experiments suggesting that bacteria are capable of transferring genetic information through a process known as transformation.[2][3] Griffith used two strains of pneumococcus (Streptococcus pneumoniae) bacteria which infect mice – a type III-S (smooth)
