Effect Of Benadryl On Hamster
Purpose of the experiment is to see how Benadryl affects the focus and speed of the Hamster. Medicine is used on people and animals everyday, and depending on how they are depends on how it reacts. Since Benadryl is the most common medicine and it’s known to be safe for dogs and cats, it should be safe for hamsters if properly administered to the hamster and the dose is correct. Benadryl is known for having different reactions, it can make the consumer hypoactive or hyperactive. The experiment will be conducted by testing the speed of the Hamster through the obstacle course with different amounts of Benadryl in the hamsters system.

    The experiment was conducted in five trials. The pillbugs attraction to the substance was measured by the amount of time within one minute the pillbug was in the substance. Inside the crate the sand was placed on the left side followed by a cardboard divider and the cornstarch was placed on the right side followed by a divider, leaving a neutral spot in the middle where the pillbug was placed for one minute after each trial.…

    Daphnia Experiment

    In this laboratory experiment, our control was the Daphnia that gets spring water, whereas the drugs were the independent variable and the heart rate was the dependable variable. The first step our group did was to place the Daphnia into a clean depression slide. Next, we added a small drop of the spring water and put a cover slip over the slide. Then, we waited for one minute prior to placing the slide on the microscope in order to allow time for either solution or the drug to take its effect. After we put the slide on the microscope, we located the heart of Daphnia and counted its heartbeats while the other member kept time for each three 10-second trials. We recorded our data and calculated the average heart rates of three trials we found during the experiment. Afterwards, we calculated the average 60-second heart rates by multiplying the averages of our 10-second heart rates by 6. These procedures were repeated with the rest of solutions as well, including caffeine, aspirin, alcohol, sleep-aid, and…

    After receiving all of the information and comparing the results of the symptoms, melting point, and infrared spectroscopy we concluded that they analgesic he was given was ibuprofen. His symptoms had matched the general symptoms of an ibuprofen overdose in cats. According to the Ibuprofen and Naproxen Toxicity article the common overdose symptoms included vomiting and diarrhea. Next we compared the melting point we received when we used the Electrothermal 9100. The melting point we collected was 75.6˚C. According to ChemBlink, the melting point for ibuprofen falls anywhere between 75˚C and 78˚C. This was the next step that helped us conclude our analgesic was ibuprofen. The last comparison we made was from our infrared spectroscopy we collected and the one Dr. Allison gave as a reference. The peaks of the graph were similar to the reference given. Attached is the graph we collected and printed.…

    The first thing before testing the mice, are figuring out what our materials are. You can’t just have a couple of mice run across the floor since you wouldn’t know the speed of their run or if they even wanted to run at that time. You would have to figure out all of your obstacles that block you from doing this experiment and block them by thoroughly preparing. The first obstacle is to get the mice. You would at least…

    Water Flea's

    For our most recent experiment we tested the effects of immersing water fleas in caffeine and alcohol to see the effects on their heart rate. Before the experiment we hypothesized that if you place the water fleas in alcohol then their heart rate will slow down, and if you place them in caffeine then their heart rate will raise. For this experiment we needed water fleas, tap water, two pipettes, a microscope, a stopwatch, two glass micro slides, caffeine (concentrations: 1.0, 1.5, 2), alcohol (concentrations: 2.0, 4.0, 6.0). We then used the pipette to place one water flea into a concentration of water as the control. Once the control was established we proceeded to add different concentrations of caffeine and alcohol to the slide. We used a stopwatch to observe the heart rate and found that at first the rate decreased and then increased as we tested higher concentrations of caffeine. We then found that as we added alcohol the water fleas heart rate increased and then decreased as we tested higher concentrations.…

    The solutions had no affect on pulsation rate because of the negative change in rate of beats per minute (table 1.1). The alternative hypothesis is supported by the data found in the experiment sample. However there is an error due to the sample size is not large enough to apply to the population of blackworms. Overall there were no significant in the changes of pulsation rates that would conclude that the drugs had an affect. The graph’s 1.3 and 1.4 determine there was no affect on the pulsation rates.…

    These medications wok by regulating impulsive behavior, improving attention span and focus by increasing the level of dopamine and norepinephrine, which are chemicals found in the brain. These chemical assist with transmitting signals between nerves. Stimulants have been proven to have improved symptoms in approximately 70 to 80percent of children ("WebMD", 2014). On the other hand there are some not so good effects associated with the use of stimulant medications as well. For instance some of the most common side effects include, tics, increased heartbeat, feeling restless and nervous/jittery, insomnia, reduce or loss in appetite, headaches, upset stomach, irritability, mood swings, depression, and vertigo. More serious side effects associated with the use of stimulants are, chest pain, shortness of breath, fainting, hallucinations (i.e., seeing or hearing things that are not real), suspicion and paranoia, as the risk of dependency ("Helpguide.org", n.d.). Stimulants do have many benefits. On the other hand they also carry many risk. This is why medication is usually the option chosen after exhausting all other available options. The last…
