Because of this association‚ Hooke called them cells‚ the name they still bear. However‚ Hooke did not know their real structure or function.[2] What Hooke had thought were cells were actually just empty cell walls of plant tissues‚ but without ever thinking that cells could be alive‚ and also since his microscope had a very low magnification

Does caffeine affect heart rate? Background Information: Caffeine is a bitter white crystalline xanthine alkaloid that acts as a psychoactive stimulant drug. A German chemist‚ Friedrich Ferdinand Runge‚ discovered it in 1819. Plants produce caffeine as an insecticide. It is found in varying quantities in the beans‚ leaves‚ and fruit of over 60 plants‚ where it acts as a natural pesticide that paralyses and kills certain insects feeding on the plants. Cocoa in South America‚ coffee in Africa

In stage IA1‚ the cancer is not more than 3 millimeters deep and not more than 7 millimeters wide. In stage IA2‚ the cancer is more than 3 but not more than 5 millimeters deep‚ and not more than 7 millimeters wide. Stage IB is divided into stages IB1 and IB2‚ based on the size of the tumor. the cancer can only be seen with a microscope and is more than 5 millimeters deep

It will be easy to discover and count the heart rate of Daphnia as long as the Microscope is set up correctly. The goal of this project is to measure the heart rate of Daphnia whether it will increase or decrease after a caffeine is added. Basically this lab report will explain the experiments on Daphnia and observe the effect of different
