The goal of this project is to test whether alcohol and caffeine has an effect on heart rate‚ using the freshwater crustacean‚ Daphnia magna‚ as the experimental subject. For humans‚ alcohol works as a depressant‚ slowing down the heart rate of the consumer; caffeine works as a stimulant‚ increasing the heart rate of the consumer. The heart depends on an internal pacemaker system to keep it pumping consistently and at the right speed. Alcohol disturbs this pacemaker system and causes the heart

The Great depression which lasted from 1929 to 1939‚ it was the chain reaction of the stock market crash of 1929. The Stock market crash was when many investors pulled out there shares all at once. There was a “black thursday” where 12.9 million shares were traded‚ and “black tuesday" where 16 million shares were traded. Many of the shares that were pulled ultimately had no value‚ and a majority of those stocks were bought with borrowed money. For example‚ if a person buys 100 shares at $10 a share

Money was suddenly in good supply and not since the previous recession in 1897 had the general public enjoyed such economic prosperity. (This prosperity however‚ had a direct effect on consumer prices which went up drastically.) However‚ with the ending of the war in 1918‚ many men returned home victorious‚ full of fervor from the war to end

REFERENCES 7 INTRODUCTION The impact of the change interest rates and inflation has a persistent impact on the well being of any given society. For this purpose it is the understanding that each individual in society should have an understanding of what such changes bring fourth for the man on the street. In this introduction‚ we are going to introduce certain key points to remember when dealing with interest rate- and inflation changes. Inflation is a sustained increase in the general

generally followed most of my plan for the experiments‚ but to improve accuracy and reliability‚ I made one change. In my plan‚ I said that I was going to use 20cm³ of starch for each experiment. However‚ in my actual experiment I used 40cm³ of starch. This is because I thought I might not have had enough solution if I only used 20cm³ of starch. If this was the case‚ then I would have to stop the experiment half way through‚ which would have prevented me from obtaining accurate results. So for this

In a deeper sense‚ it was a strategic ideology that promoted a new international order based on altruistic ideals while providing the international framework that protected and advanced American economic and security interests. One of the main promises of Wilsonianism included national self-determination but the reality of the postwar situation limited the implementation of this principle. Wilson’s desire to have people establish their own nations was evident in his “Fourteen Points”

Aim To work out how light intensity can affect the rate of photosynthesis. Hypothesis I think that the further away the light source is the smaller the rate of photosynthesis is. This is because there is a further distance for the light to each the plant in order for it to photosynthesise. Although the closer the light source is‚ the more photosynthesis‚ the light source could also kill or damage the Elodea (type of pondweed) because it could become too hot and denature its cells. But because

February 15‚ 2012 Effects of Temperature on Enzymatic Activity Abstract Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. As this movement increases‚ collision rate and intensity‚ and therefore reaction rates‚ increase. This experiment was conducted to determine if there is a minimum temperature that increase kinetic energy and denature enzymes to slow enzymatic reactions or fail to catalyze them. The experimental results indicate an increase in temperature will increase reaction rates until proteins denature
