Aseptic Technique & Culturing Microbes Purpose: To learn and employ aseptic technique and basic forms of culture media as well as become familiar with the basic requirements of microbial growth and the methods used to control microbial growth. Procedure: Obtained a small Styrofoam cooler placed two small light bulbs in side and observed temperature over 24 hours to ensure temperature could be maintained between 98-100 degrees. Using a 10% bleach solution I then cleaned my work area. Transferring

Materials and Methods: Inoculation of the unknown was done on a nutrient slant agar The nutrient agar was then incubated at 27°C for one week. The agar appearance was observed and recorded. There was growth that appeared pinkish in color. The first test we did was basic stain using a heat fixed emulsion which kills the bacteria and allows them to adhere to the slide and thickens their protein for better staining. I then covered the heat fixed emulsion with crystal violet for one minute. The stain

Species Interaction * The relationships between two species in an ecosystem. * The interactions between two species need not be through direct contact. Species may affect each other through intermediaries such as shared resources or common enemies. Major factors in evolution and adaptation: * Predation * Competition for scarce resources Terminologies: * Habitat – the actual physical location where a species lives. * Conditions – physical or chemical attributes of the
