This experiments purpose is to study the effects of manmade chemicals on daphnia. By observing 2-3 daphnia in 4 different environments I rated each Daphnia magna on a scale of 0 to 5 on how it affected their health. I averaged each of the daphnia’s heath based on their behavior and apperence.One pure water, then three other environments exposed to antifreeze, pesticides, and cigarette ash. After observing each environment for 30 minutes I discovered that cigarette ash is the most toxic to daphnia I rated their health at a 0 and antifreeze is the only chemical I tested that didn’t result in death I rated the daphnia exposed to antifreeze at a 2 due to the change in appearance and downfall of health . Pesticide resulted in to rapid physical
