Branchiopoda

Faith Eno Daphnia lab report Abstract The importance of this experiment is to better understand how the water flea reacts to the solutions alcohol and caffeine. The experiment begins with taking the dapnia and securing it onto a slide. A team of two people where one will count the heart beats and one keep track of time will measure the BPM of the Daphnia throughout. The control is the first to be measured in beats per minute with brief breaks to change out the water. Then the variables alcohol, caffeine, and the experimental solution are measured with brief breaks to change out the concentrations of the solutions (alcohol 1%, 3%, and %5 ;Caffeine 1% and 2%) rest the water flea in water.
