Our research question being addressed in this experiment is whether or not escalating the temperature of Daphnia magna's environment will greatly impact the expression of its haemoglobin gene. In addition, we also want to observe if there are negative consequences that can possibly occur from this escalating gene expression. This can also be linked to whether or not global warming has been affecting Daphnia, a primary and crucial source of food for many organisms in freshwater habitat, negatively. Our hypothesis for our experiment is that if there is an increase in temperature in the habitat of Daphnia magna, then there will be increased gene expression of the haemoglobin gene. Our main expected outcome, according to background information,
