Why C02 Died Fast

Decent Essays
Show More
The results to this experiment means that the more C02 boster we added to the tank the fish died faster and the C02 booster was replaced to act as the pollution , so in other words if there is many pollution in the ocean the fish and other living organisms in the ocean will have the chance to die faster .
According to the results me and my group’s hypothesis was supported/was proven correct , the fish in the tank that was exposed to the most C02 died faster .The fish that were exposed to the most C02 died faster due to the plant getting overworked and not giving the fish much oxygen to survive . According to our data the fish with the less C02 took way longer to die and the tank with the most C02 died within 5 minutes or less .

    Experiment 2-3 Daphnia

    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 .…

    Crayfish Experiment

    Effect of temperature Results In this experiment, results from two Procambarus propinquus (crayfish) were collected to observe the difference in oxygen consumption at different acclimated temperatures. These cray fish were collected from Medway Creek in London, and acclimated to their new environment and temperatures. The crayfish were exposed to the cold environment having an average temperature of 7° or warm having an average of 22°. An unpaired, two-tailed t test was performed to determine if there would be a change in O2 consumption between 2 individual crayfish.…

    Conodoguinet Creek Lab Report

    My hypothesis, if we test the water from the Conodoguinet Creek for signs of pollution, then the results would be negative for the pollution because the water appears clear at most parts of the river, is somewhat correct. Based on our findings, the degrees of pollution of the Conodoguinet Creek are very low. The phosphate levels, phosphate meaning a salt or ester of phosphoric acid (mineral acid), are at most 1. Nitrate is a salt or ester of nitric acid. The levels of nitrate are also very low, up to 1.2.…

    Gold Fish Ectotherm Experiment

    Once the experiment was completed, the results of the experiment were reviewed. The null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative hypothesis, change in temperatures does effect goldfish respiration rate, was accepted. Goldfish are considered ectotherms which mean that their body temperature changes as their environment temperature changes (White and Campo 2015). Ectotherms have two aquatic ectotherm strategies they use to cope with cold temperatures. The goldfish in this experiment used the first strategy, which is to slow down their metabolism.…

    Acclimated Crayfish: Metabolic Compensation

    Compensation is the maintenance of the levels of physiological processes, despite changes in temperature. This experiment was coordinated to determine whether crayfish will show metabolic compensation when acclimated to various temperatures. The findings of this study show that temperature had no effect on crayfish oxygen consumption. The oxygen consumption for both the warm and cold acclimated crayfish was almost the same, despite the opposite direction of the temperature change. The results of this study therefore support the hypothesis.…

    CARBON DIOXIDE PRODUCTION IN NATURE Introduction: Most people are familiar with the process of the metabolism, but for those who are not, metabolism is the sum total of all the chemical reactions that occur in a living organism. Most people recognize it by how fast they burn off food to create energy. Some people have a fast metabolic rate, others have a much slower energy rate. Today, we are going to measure the metabolic rates of 6 different organisms and situations to test who has a higher metabolic rate than the other.…

    Daphnia Experiment

    My group is experimenting on a Daphnia. The purpose of our experiment is to test the Daphnia’s with different liquids and see how heart rate increases,decreases or even kill the Daphnia. The variable in our experiment is changing the water content and seeing what the heart rate. The experiment on the Daphnia matters because if we were to have types of elements in lakes that can possibly kill the Daphnia’s, there can be a possibility there species could end. What the Daphnia prefers is open fresh water in their habitat.…

    How Does Ocean Acidification Affect Marine Life

    The acidification of our oceans increases the likelihood of coral reefs to be destroyed or broken down due to erosion. These nearly extinct ecosystems that are either becoming unstable or are being destroyed forces species to find another environment to make their home or to adapt in. The low survival rate of coral reefs under such harsh conditions makes the survival rate of other organisms detrimental as well because it leaves them vulnerable with the reduced amount of living spaces for fish. Leaving fish open to predators, it also has a harmful effects on a fish’s organs. Even though fish do not have shells, they are still affected by the changes that ocean acidification can cause.…

    Arguments Against Killifish

    Evolution is a necessity in our world. Organisms need to be able to adapt to their surroundings in order to survive, but it is sad to see that certain organisms have to evolve to survive in polluted areas, such as the Atlantic Killifish. According to JoAnna Klein, “Starting in the late 1990s, researchers became aware that the fish was tolerant of the toxic waters at the Lower Passaic Superfund Site.” Organisms should not have to adapt to polluted environments. In New Jersey, the law states that people can not eat the fish found in this area.…

    Ph Levels Affecting Coral Reefs

    They never stated the size groups of the spiny damselfish so we have no idea how many they even collected for the study. This is flawed, because if they used a small amount of fish then that wouldn’t prove that CO2 levels affect the behavior of most of these fish. If they used a large amount then it may prove that this can happen, but we won’t know, because they never stated how many fish were collected. Another flawed thing in this study is that they only have one species of coral reef fish so we only know that lower pH levels affect that one species of fish. They should have used more than one species of coral reef fish to state that higher levels of CO2 affect their brain chemistry.…

    Ocean Acidification Effect

    Ocean Acidification-Effect on Squid Ocean acidification is a direct result of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide CO2 concentration due different type of human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation (Halpern). The world’s ocean surfaces have gradually become more acidic due to absorption of excess anthropological carbon emissions throughout history. Since the Industrial Revolution during 19th century, the carbon dioxide level has been dramatically increasing. In addition, the CO2 concentration level has reached a constant of 280 ppm during Pre-Industrial and will reach 700ppm by the year of 2060 under the projections (Cooley). Figure 1 shows that as the carbon dioxide levels increase in ocean, the pH level decrease.…

    Marine Debris

    Marine debris is anything from a plastic bag to an aluminum can that made the ocean or beach its home. Whether it was left by a careless beachgoer or a boat dropped it overboard accidently, it is now debris. Litter is another name for it, though that name is more commonly associated with its land counterpart, and it also affects the environment and those inhabiting it. The affects are devastating to the marine life in the oceans with animals such as sea turtles mistaking it for food or getting caught in it and being unable to free itself leading to its death. It also causes for accidental harm like gathering on the top of the water and disrupting sunlight trying to pass through…
