Brine Shrimp Lab Report

252 Words2 Pages

My hypothesis for this experiment was not what I expected it to be. Instead of having each section grow in size due to the solution was incorrect. I only had my 1% with solution grow. This is the lowest concentration level I had and my lowest number of brine shrimp in the section without concentration as well. The other sections with my 5% and my 10% concentration ended up with no hatched eggs at all. This could be due to enviornmental reasons. Due to the enviornment brine shrimp usually have to grow is due to natural selection. Through natural selection they are able to pass down genes and carry ablitly to reproduce. Unlike in our experiment where we just had a solution and them in a petry dish. Brine shrimp can live in an enviornment

    Using the 0.1 M stock solutions of sugar, a 0.01 M dilution was created for each sugar type by adding water to the stock solution 9 out of 1. A 20 mL dilution was made for each trial. The same volume of each solution (10 mL -5 mL ) was added to the green sponges to create four group; Group 1: Sponge with 10 Ml 0.01 M glucose solution, Group 2: Sponge with 10 mL 0.01 M fructose solution, Group 3: Sponge with 10mL 0.01 M sucrose solution, Group 4 (Control): Sponge with 10 mL water. The four sponges were placed every 90 degrees on the edge of the arena. The isopods were placed into their environment for one to two minutes to acclimate with the environment.

    “A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel” (King James Version, Prov. 12.10). In order to fully regard the life of God’s beasts, we must preserve/facilitate their population so others can look and marvel at God’s creation. Information shows that seahorse populations are commonly vulnerable to heavy exploitation due to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), aquarium trade, and destruction of natural habitats (Allee). The IUCN red list of threatened species tracks animal populations and classifies them based on conservation status. Many species of seahorse such as the Hippocampus Reidi are classified as data deficient; showing there is a lack of research and concern over these disappearing

    Preparation for the Dissection The Dogfish shark is about 70 inches long and you should notice along the side of the shark there is a light colored horizontal stripe called the lateral line. Made up of a tiny pore that lead to receptors that are very sensitive to the mechanical displacement of water and sudden changes of pressure. You will need tools for this including Latex gloves, yard stick (with centimeters), scalper knife, scissors, probe, and if you have a weak stomach you should wear facemask so the smell won’t be bad.

    In this experiment, a virtual program designed to demonstrate the swimming of a virtual fish, was used. This program is called SWIMMY. SWIMMY was used in this experiment to determine the circuits that are used in the movement of an animal. This is done by presenting the neurons and the neural circuits in a body which can allow and show the movement of the fish’s tail virtually. The movement of the fish tail occurs by the activation of motor neurons.

  • Summary: The Top-Down Effects Of Brine Shrimp On Algae

    We measured out the required volume of seawater with a graduated cylinder, pouring the contents into each jar. Because our calculated seawater volume was not a whole number, we utilized a micropipette to transfer the remaining amount of seawater. We then proceeded to collect algae from the large flask after carefully swirling around the algae to evenly distribute it within the water (Flipped Lab Videos 2016a). Using the micropipette, we transferred the appropriate volume of algae to the jars. We collected a sample of brine shrimp and added them to petri dishes in order to view them underneath a dissection microscope.

    When one thinks of a veterinarian, most associate this job title with treating dogs, cats, horses, cows, and other farm and companion animals. However, a relatively small field not known by the general population is that of marine veterinary medicine. If one has a passion for the water and a desire to help the creatures in it, marine veterinary medicine just may be the perfect career. Marine veterinarians are responsible for “conducting basic exams and evaluations, giving vaccinations, taking samples of blood and other bodily fluids, prescribing and distributing medication, evaluating behaviour, performing surgical procedures, and taking x-rays and sonograms” (Kramer “Life of an Aquatic Veterinarian”).

    The human body is mentally and physically evolved for Earth’s habitat. Through survival of the fittest, it has been refined and optimized for the pressurized, warm, and friendly environment of our planet. When a human leaves the safety that Earth and its atmosphere provides, much as a floundering fish out of water, there are consequences. The radiation and lack of gravity lead to possible health problems and the journey itself has a psychological impact on those who undertake it.

  • Chamaesipho Brunnea Research Paper

    1861 Words  | 8 Pages

    For this reason, since the C.columna has a wider fundamental niche of LTZ-HTZ than the C.brunnea (MTZ-HTZ) they are able to efficiently feed in any of the three intertidal zones, while the C.brunnea is only able to feed in two. This links with how the C.brunnea are better adapted for living in the HTZ than the C.columna, who are better adapted at feeding in the LTZ-MTZ. Therefore, the C.columna are able to competitively exclude the C.brunnea from the MTZ (where their niches overlap) and restrict their distribution to the upper shore because they have the wider fundamental niche. It is also due to the fact that the C.columna have the behavioural adaptation of being able to settle on another grounded barnacle, while the C.brunnea do not. Because of this, the C.columna are better able to increase their population whilst decreasing the population of the C.brunnea in the MTZ as they are able to occupy more space.
