------------------------------------------------- Introduction Cystic fibrosis (also called CF or mucoviscidosis) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects most critically the lungs‚ and also the pancreas‚ liver‚ and intestine. It is characterized by abnormal transport of chloride and sodium across an epithelium‚ leading to thick‚ viscous secretions. The name refers to the characteristic scarring (fibrosis) and cyst formation within the pancreas that was first recognized in the

Mold can grow in many different places. There are four different types of mold. Mold is impossible to see with the naked eye without a microscope. There is a type of mold called “Zygomycota”. Zygomycota grows mainly of fruit. Zygomycota is the type of mold that I will be working with in my science fair project. Zygomycota is one of the types of mold that are invisible to the naked eye in the early stages of development. Zygomycota grows on high sugar sources. So mostly on fruit and sugary

hypothesis due to the correlation between amylase activity and the starch. This is experiment displayed how efficiently temperature affected the shape of the enzyme‚ thus affecting the enzyme activity so It could function properly. Methods: Aspergillus oryzae known as fungal amylase and Bacillus licheniform also known as bacterial amylase were the two enzymes that were used to examine the different temperatures in order to find the optimal temperature to break down the starch. During the preparation

INTRODUCTION Onychomycosis is defined as a fungal infection of the nail that expands slowly and if left untreated leads to complete destruction of the nail plate‚it can be dermatophytic (99%) and/or nondermatophytic (1%) (Including yeasts) infections of the nail plate. (1) The dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton mentagrophytes are the most common causative pathogens responsible for up to 90% of all cases.(1) Onychomycosis represents about 30% of all dermatophyte
