this week in science(daphnia and introduced species)

this week in science we did research on animals. we wrote how they were found and how they were introduced. we also wrote how they affected the enviroment and how they were spread. the last thing we did was write what humans did about this. then we went on the bio bus and did experiments on a daphnia like intoxicating them with alcohol and seeing their heart rates.

this week in science we learned about daphnias and how they are found in rivers. we learned that daphnias are good testing subjects because they are small. we also learned that they used the daphnia was the model organism. i learned that zebra mussels attach to animals and they are bad for some animals because they are capable of killing some animals.i also learned that austrailan rabbits were so bad because there bad reproducing ability.
