![]() ![]() System where respiration exceeds the input of oxygen (through photosynthesis orĪeration), there will be a measurable decline in dissolved oxygen and aĬorresponding decline in pH due to the addition of CO 2 to Oxidize organic materials and releases energy, water, and carbon dioxide. Notes: Respiration by visible organisms (minnows orĪquaria fish) and by "invisible" organisms - bacteria - uses oxygen to Levels and record their data and observations. Students might think some of the fish willĭie – have them make predictions and support their hypotheses. Students should design a control into their Students will take data during first classĭetritus is the organic matter that fallsīottles have lids so that oxygen from the Students should measure all materials beforeĪdding them to the microcosm and they should set up a variety of Parameters that correlate to aquatic respiration (dissolved oxygen and Based on their internet research, they can analyze Students will design an experiment in whichĪquatic respiration can occur and measure the effects it has on waterĬhemistry. Students examine Water on the Web site to What do you think will happen to the fish? Think that the minnows die because they get too hot, which might also Minnows left in a bucket with too little water will die. Overfeeding will cause an algal bloom, and Hydrogen and part oxygen, this fulfills the oxygen requirements of Some may think that because water is part Students may know that the oxygen comes from ![]() Discuss uses of a lake for humans and other organisms. With reasons why aquatic respiration might be an issue for the lakeĪssociation. Might not, occur in lakes? What water quality measures might correlate This situation? Why do students think similar situations might, or What happens? Why do the animals oftenĭie in these situations? What water quality measures might correlate to Periods of time, or minnow buckets that have been left without fresh Such as aquaria that have been overfed or left untended for prolonged Where does the oxygen in water come from? How does aquatic respiration affect water The lake association has asked you to answer theĬan you demonstrate how respirationoccurs in Water is analyzed and they are familiar with the concept of communitiesĪbout the effects of aquatic respiration on its lake has hired you as aĬonsulting biologist. That the students already have an initial lesson on water chemistry and The selected measure for the student inquiry lesson)Ĭonductivity is the selected measure for the student inquiry lesson) Group will make up to 5 pH and DO analyses with a meter or two analysesĪre readily available and tolerant of low oxygen levels) Meters for each group's workstation (for analyzing DO and pH). Hach or Lamotte water quality testing materials or.Water Quality Testing Equipment and Materials (per student group) The data they generate in a lab report format. Students learn that the simple act of respiration can have profoundĪ laboratory experiment which will allow then to measure parameters The affects of respiration on the water chemistry of lakes. Will use laboratory microcosms and Water on the Web data ( ) On water chemistry by studying a microcosm of a lake ecosystem. Including the carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and water cycles. The student knows that interdependence and interactions occur within an ecosystem. Trophic levels and between organisms and the physical environment.ġ2) Science concepts. (D) analyze the flow of matter and energy The student knows metabolic processes and energy transfers that occur in living organisms. (C) organize, analyze, evaluate, make inferences, andĩ) Science concepts. The student uses scientific methods during field and laboratory investigations.Īsking questions, formulating testable hypotheses, and selecting Safe practices during field and laboratory The student, for at least 40% of instructional time, conducts field and laboratory investigations using safe, environmentally appropriate, and ethical practices.
