Abstract High school and post-secondary students alike often use caffeinated beverages to stay awake in order to extend study time into the late night and early morning hours. Using an invertebrate Dugesia Tigrina model, we sought out to determine which of two popular caffeinated beverages - coffee or Red Bull© - would have the most significant effect on an organism's activity level.
