The Effects of Alcohol vs. Caffeine on Water Flea ’s Heart Rate. Title Page Abstract For our most recent experiment we tested the effects of immersing water fleas in caffeine and alcohol to see the effects on their heart rate.

certain drugs or stimulants are quite similar to those of humans. Caffeine is known to increase individual’s energy and physical activity‚ leading to the question of how different concentrations of caffeine would affect planaria’s physical activity. Low doses of caffeine enhance oxygen consumption in these flatworms (Pagán‚ & Oné 2009).

Biology Lab we learned the effects of caffeine and nicotine on heart rate. Based on previous knowledge of caffeine and nicotine‚ I came up with the following hypothesis; The presence of nicotine will slow the heart rate of the worm and the presence of caffeine will speed the rate up. My hypothesis was based on what I seen in everyday life. A person who smokes a lot of cigarettes usually have a slower heart rate‚ whereas a person whom drinks a lot of caffeine sodas are hyper and have a faster heart
