Bread Mold Experiment By: Stephanie Westover PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment will be to determine how temperature affects the growth of mold on wheat bread. The researchers choose this topic because she thinks it will be beneficial to find a way to keep food from molding. Determining how long bread can be stored before molding can help save money‚ prevent illness and preserve freshness. The question the researcher will attempt to answer is how freezing

March 26‚ 2013 Methods and Materials (Bread Mold Lab) Block 1 The materials needed to conduct this experiment are six small squares of bread‚ a container of milk‚ four small Ziploc bags‚ a thermometer‚ a phone to record data and a heat lamp. The container of milk will be used for residue on the inside of two of the plastic bags. The heat lamp will be used to generate heat onto the bread towards the possibility of mold. The thermometer is used to measure the heat that the heat lamp is producing;

find out how mold happens. Mold happens when bread is left out in moist areas. Mold grows because it seeks moisture warmth and food. Mold forms because in dust there are tiny micro-organisms and fungi along with it. The type of fungi found in air is called a spore‚ and it does the same thing as the dandelion seeds when you blow them in the air. A spore will float around until it lands on something and if that something is food‚ that spore will germinate and grow into a fungus. Mold happens in places

Title: Bread Mold Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to test the effect of water on bread mold growth. Hypothesis: I hypothesized bread mold would grow faster if the bread was exposed to water. Materials: 1. Bread 2. Plastic cup 3. Water 4. Rubber band 5. Plastic wrap 6. Light 7. Scale 8. Seizers Procedures: Day 1 1. Cut two pieces of bread 1 by 1 2. Place the beard in two separate cups 3. Put 11 drops of water on one of the pieces of bread

Environment ’s effect on Growth of Bread Molds I. INTRODUCTION A. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Molds are species of fungi. There are many different kinds of molds‚ some of which are specially adapted to grow in particular environments or on particular surfaces. Unlike plants‚ molds cannot produce their own food‚ so they need an external source of energy and nutrients. Molds (and mildew) are fungi. Fungi are neither plant nor animal but‚ since 1969‚ have their own kingdom. The fungi kingdom

BACKGROUND RESEARCH Mold is a type of fungus that grows on plant and food and is most often associated with damp‚ musty locations such as bathrooms‚ basements‚ and attics. Mold travels through the air as tiny spores which like to make their home in wet areas‚ where they will breed. If mold is spotted‚ it is best to take care of it right away so that it does not spread to other areas. It is also a good indication of a moisture problem. In addition to molds ugly appearance‚ it can also

What Type of Bread Molds the Fastest? Bread has been part of the human diet for thousands of years. Generally‚ breads were prepared and baked daily for consumption. Today’s bread contains preservatives to make it last longer in the home. This project is about discovering what type of bread molds the fastest out of white‚ wheat‚ rye‚ and homemade. To do this experiment a total of four types of bread were observed in the same environment. A photo of each slice of bread was taken every other day. A

Mold in an Archives: Identification and Treatment The appearance of mold on archival materials is a prevalent problem for libraries and museums alike. Unfortunately‚ it is an often overlooked problem‚ because it is seen as typical for older materials or it goes unrecognized altogether. The fact that mold is preventable‚ although not always easily so‚ should encourage those who want to protect documents to ensure the environment they are held in are unsuitable for mold growth. Mold often needs

Bread Mold Experiment Mold is something that we often take for granted‚ as something that makes us have to throw the bread away or the cheese smell bad. Mold is‚ in fact‚ a fascinating organism which has had many different uses over the years and our lives would not be the same without it. Most of us know that food seems to become moldy more quickly in the summer than in the winter when it is colder. Food in refrigerators seems to keep longer than food left out in the sun. Is this true? Does temperature

have you ever gotten bread with fuzzy colored stuff on it? That fuzzy stuff is mold. Mold is an organism but it is not a plant or an animal… So what is it? Mold is a fungus (in the fungi kingdom) that comes from tiny spores in the air. It cannot get energy from the sun like plants and animals do. For mold to grow‚ it needs to have water‚ oxygen‚ a food source‚ and temperatures that are 40-100 degrees Fahrenheit. High humidity gives off moisture for the mold to grow. Mold starts to grow when there
