\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Key terms<\/strong><\/span>: toxicity, pulse rate, blood circulation, Phylum Annelida, Class Oligochaeta, freshwater invertebrate<\/p>\n


\nPurpose:<\/span><\/strong> a model for students to conduct real experiments that they design based on a simple \u201cmodel organism\u201dknown as black worms. With very little effort it is possible to provide students<\/p>\n

The student will be able to observe and record the pulse rate of Lumbriculus variegatus <\/em>( an aquatic segmented worm).<\/p>\n

The student will design and carry out an experiment showing the effect of various substances on the pulse rate of Lumbriculus variegatus.<\/em><\/p>\n

These worms were made famous by the late Charlie Drewes and many of the techniques are of his design. His website is an invaluable resource and many thanks go to those that maintain and support his teachings. http:\/\/www.eeob.iastate.edu\/faculty\/DrewesC\/htdocs\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
