    First, the Elvis board was connected to a power source and to the computer. A team member then connected the IR optosensor to the Easy Pulse circuit board. Afterwards the Easy Pulse circuit board was wired to the NI Elvis II board using jumper wires, ensuring that the VCC, A0 and GND pins connected to the +5V, AI0+, and AIGND sections respectively. The AI0 was then connected directly to the AIGND on the Elvis board. Once that was done, another team member ran the program Pulse Moniter.vi and instructed the program to read from the physical channel Dev3/ai0.…

    After testing the D. magna with alcohol, the results showed a negative effect on the D. magna. After recording the normal heart rate in beats per minute (bpm) before the experiment, alcohol was applied to four different D. magna for each percentage of alcohol. The three concentrations of alcohol used were 5%, 10%, and 20%. Once the differences in heart rate were recorded for each of the D. magna, the averages of the four differences in heart rate for each concentration of alcohol were calculated. The averages calculated were -3 bpm for 5%, -13…

    Frog Caffeine Experiment

    • 1589 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Caffeine serves as a lignin that physically binds to the receptor and triggers the increase of cyclic AMP concentration (Watt & Routledge, 1986). The Increase in CAMP allows for the activation of protein Kinases, which increases heart rate and other metabolic/intracellular processes. Since the frog was not introduced to caffeine prior to the experiment, there was a drastic peak in the heart rate after just a couple minutes (Figure 1). This parallels the situations in humans because the people who don’t consume caffeine on a regular basis have more drastic effects on the heart rate versus those who consume caffeine on a daily basis. If more than the normal amount of caffeine (more than 500 mg) is consumed, there is a significant increase of heart rate and a spontaneous increase in blood pressure, although it is unclear of exactly why blood pressure increases when caffeine is introduced to the system.…

    The article "Your Favorite Drinks Can Wreck Your Body" by, Russ LLoyd and Evan Cook, shows evidence that it does make sense to require warning labels on sugary beverages and not other foods that contain sugar. One reason why it makes sense to have warning labels on sugary beverages is the affect of how people live their lives. The article states, "Without labels people wouldn't know what they were going to eat or drink." Also, eating to much sugar can lead to bigger problems like, obesity, risks for heart diseases, diabetes, and so much more health problems. People should put warning labels on beverages so people are more careful of what they drink.…

    Sugar And Heart Rate

    • 151 Words
    • 1 Pages

    Certain activities cause a rise of heart rate, or the number of times the human heart beats in one minute. In our investigation, we studied the effect of different amounts of sugar on a person’s resting heart rate, and we predicted that sugar would cause a spike in heart rate. Consuming large amounts of sugar leads to a high blood sugar, which can interfere with proper blood vessel function, and the malfunctioning of blood vessels can increase heart rate as well as increase blood pressure(Cannall). Also, the body can break down glucose a lot faster than it can break down starch, so the sudden increase in blood sugar causes a higher metabolism, which often results in a higher heart rate(Williams). After conducting several trials and experiments,…

    This experiment is purposely to study the effect of the concentration of the chemical solution on the heartbeat of the zebrafish larva. There are many advantages in using the zebrafish as the model organism. According to Gore, Monzo, Cha, Pan and Weinstein (2012), the zebrafish is commonly used as the model system of the vertebrate as it has small in size and also have the rapid development in their life. This is one of the reason of the chosen of the zebrafish as the excellent model organisms that widely being used in studying the blood and also the lymphatic vascular development (Gore et al., 2012). The transparency of the zebrafish, especially during the larvae stages allow the visualization of the circulatory system in detail.…
