AP Lab 10 Physiology of the Circulatory System Pre-Lab AP Circulation Lab 1. Read the lab. 2. Construct an introduction.

Include information from exercise 10A, 10B and 10C. 3. Write three hypotheses (1) comparing reclining and standing blood pressure, reclining and standing pulse, and the effect of changing temperatures on the heart rate of daphnia. 4. Copy the blood pressure data table and the fitness data table for data collection. 5. Construct a data table for the Daphnia portion of the lab.
Daphnia Circulatory System Lab - Computer Simulation Procedure Go to the following website and complete the computer simulation activity. http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/labbench/lab10/intro.html If this link doesnt work, go to Lab Bench Review of Labs Click on Lab 10: Circulatory Physiology Read the following sections, complete all activities and answer all questions. 10-1 Cardiovascular fitness Key Concept I Blood Pressure and Pulse On your lab sheet, explain blood pressure. Concept 1: Blood Pressure On your lab sheet define systolic and diastolic pressure Concept 2: Understanding Blood pressure Concept 3: Measuring blood pressure Concept 4: Procedure for measuring blood pressure Concept 5: Measuring pulse Design of Experiment I Analysis of results 1 Answer the questions and check your answers. Record your answers on your lab sheet to turn in. Lab Quiz I - record your responses, check your answers and record the correct answers 10-11 Heart Rate in Daphnia Key concepts II: Temperature and Metabolic activity On your lab sheet define homeostasis. What is the difference between ectotherms and endotherms? What is thermoregulation? Concept 1: Measuring temperature and metabolic rate Answer the question and record your answer. Design of the Experiment II Take a closer look at each of the Daphnia and calculate the heart rate at each temperature Analysis of Results II Use the data you collect to construct a hand drawn graph illustrating the effects of temperature on the heart rate of Daphnia. Lab Quiz II - record your responses, check your answers and record the correct answers

Analysis for 10A, 10B, and 10C Topics for Discussion 10 A and 10 B (9pts) 1. Explain why blood pressure and heart rate differ when measured in a reclining position and in a standing position. (2pts) 2. Explain why high blood pressure is a health concern.(2pts) 3. Explain why an athlete must exercise harder or longer to achieve a maximum heart rate than a person who is not as physically fit. (2pts) 4. Research and explain why smoking causes a rise in blood pressure. (3pts) Topics for Discussion Daphnia 10C (9pts) Graph your Daphina Data 1. What effect did temperature have on the heart rate of your Daphnia? Address the effect of errors. (3pts) 2. Why does temperature affect heart rate in ectothermic organisms? (2pts) 3. Discuss what results you might obtain if you repeated this experiment using an endothermic Organism (2pts) 4. Describe at least four ways an ectothermic organisms behavior helps it regulate its temperature. (2pts)
