Bacterial growth patterns and the effects of environmental factors on properties of colonies ERIC LI Abstract In this experiment we work with different types of bacteria and experiment with their different properties and how they grow in certain situations. Different samples of bacteria cultures were gathered from different places such as the mouth‚ shaded mulch‚ and from the table top. The samples were collected by using a cotton swab and swiped onto a petri dish filled with nutrient agar. The

Discuss whether economic growth solves the problems of scarcity. Scarcity is the situation where finite factor inputs are insufficient to produce goods and services to satisfy infinite human wants. Economic growth is defined as the increase in real Gross Domestic Product(GDP) through time. Growth occurs if there is an increase in land‚ labor‚ human capital and technology.

Therefore‚ if features of the universe are so perfectly designed‚ for example the structure and function of
