Coursework on the heart rate of the daphnia My aim is to investigate the heart rate of the daphnia whilst the temperature of the surrounding environment is the variable to be changed. This variable will increase or decrease the heart rate. I will need to do some research and preliminary work before I choose my temperature and the way I carry out the process efficiently and effectively. Prediction I predict during the investigation the heart rate of the daphnia will increase as the surrounding temperature increases and vice-versa. But at a certain point the daphnia will stop responding if the temperature decrease or increases too much. I also predict that if the temperature doubles so should the heart rate of the daphnia. For example if at 10oC the heart rate is 50 then at 20oC the heart rate should be 100. Scientific Knowledge The daphnia adapts to its surroundings because it is a cold blooded...
