1-1 EXPERIMENT 1 ISOLATION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA In this experiment you will isolate caffeine from tea leaves and prepare the salicylate derivative. Introduction This experiment illustrates the isolation of a naturally occurring product from plant material -- caffeine from tea leaves. The experiment will provide experience in handling relatively small amounts of material and at the same time you will be exposed to several techniques and procedures which are fundamental for survival in an organic

Effects of salinity on the survival of the Daphnia Introduction The Daphniidae daphnia is a freshwater crustacean from the branchiopod class that is common to most ponds‚ lakes‚ pools‚ streams and springs around the world. The water flea‚ as it is sometimes referred to‚ is very small in size growing to a length of less than ¼ inch‚ it has a flat back‚ a rounded belly‚ black round eyes and a pair of antennae (Kindersley‚ 2006). The Daphnia have leaf-like appendages used in respiration‚ filter

Temperature and Epinephrine on The Heart Rate of Daphnia Leslie Orzetti-Gollhofer Gaby Macias INTRODUCTION The Daphnia is a Crustacean other known as the water flea. It lives in small bodies of freshwater. The Daphnia is ectothermic‚ meaning it controls its body temperature through external means. With this experiment we experienced first hand what the effect temperature has on a Daphnia’s heart rate. We also experimented what effect epinephrine has on a Daphnia’s heart rate. HYPOTHESIS If we add hot

information Daphnia Magna is an arthropod that can grow up to 5 mm. It is a filter feeder meaning it feeds off of suspended particles in the water. Daphnia can consume particles that range from 1µ to 50µ. The heart of Daphnia is located dorsally meaning it’s located in the back. The heart rate of Daphnia can range due to many variables‚ one being temperature. "At a temperature averaging 20o C its heart rate is about 200 beats per minute."2 As the temperature surrounding the Daphnia decreases so

Goldschmidt Honors Biology 2° Mrs. Gempel September 3‚ 2015 Daphnia Lab Results Paper Abstract The goal of the study was to observe the effects of multiple chemicals on a Daphnia magna’s heart-rate compared to a control (pond water). The different chemicals were caffeine and alcohol. The heart-rate was the main variable in this experiment. The Daphnia’s heart-rate was observed for 15 seconds and then multiplied by 4 to show its heart-rate in one minute. This was repeated 4 times for each chemical

comparison with decaffeinated coffee causes a slight rise in the mean change in pulse and respiration rate. However‚ the range bars of those that consumed caffeinated coffee and those that consumed decaffeinated coffee in The Mean Change in Pulse Rate graph overlap. Similarly the range bars in The Mean in Change in Respiration Rate graph overlap. This suggests that the mean change in pulse rate of decaffeinated and caffeinated groups are not accurate enough to be used to make a definitive decision

Title: Caffeine Specific purpose: To inform my audience what exactly caffeine is‚ where it comes from‚ the benefits of caffeine and the negative effects of caffeine. Introduction A. Attention material: Do you ever feel like you will never make it through the day without caffeine? Is your first thought in the morning to get yourself a cup of coffee before you can even get your day started? B. Tie to the audience: I am sure that most of you do consume at least one form of

Factors that affect exchange rates. Like any price‚ the exchange rate deviates from the cost basis - the purchasing power of currencies – under the influence of supply and demand of currency. The ratio of the supply and demand depends on several factors. It reflects connections with other economic categories - cost‚ price‚ money‚ interest‚ balance of payments‚ etc. There is a complex of interweaving and nomination of decisive factors. Among them are the following. • 1.The rate of inflation. The

aim of this practical is to investigate the effect of exercise on heart rate and breathing rate. We will use a digital heart rate monitor strapped on our chest while we perform different levels of exercise. A digital watch is also provided which receives signals from the heart rate monitor and displays your current heart rate on the screen. To measure the breathing rate at different levels of exercise‚ we measure the breathing rate before physical activity by counting the number of breaths in 10 seconds
