The objective of the experiments is to see if mold will grow on bread if it has water. Molds are found everywhere. They are a type of microscopic fungi that lives on organic matter. They can be found both indoors and outdoors. No one knows how many species of fungi exist but estimates at least three hundred thousand or more. they have been on this earth for millions of years and believe to grow where there is moisture. According to the U.S.D.A eating bread with mold can cause allergic reaction and

Baker November 22‚ 2011 Abstract The research experiment observed and analyzed the differences in microbial diversity between lichen on bare rocks and hairy cap mosses in the annual community. Samples from three different sites were taken from Mount Arabia in Georgia‚ and were analyzed in lab. The results from the data collected showed that greater microbial diversity was present in hairy cap moss than in lichen‚ with a greater percentage of growth for each colony. This could be the result of

Abstract Tetrahymena‚ a ciliated protozoan‚ possess many characteristics that makes it the perfect organism for the study of cells (Bonzzone‚ 2000). Tetrahymena can be obtained easily‚ and are often used to explore organelle structure‚ cell morphology‚ ciliary motion‚ and cell function and cell behaviors (Wheat-ley et al. 1994). The specific focus of our experiment was to examine the activity of phagocytosis and vacuole formation in Tetrahymena. This process was visualized by feeding methylene

GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction. ‘’Fish’’ and ‘’Fishes’’ are two terms that usually used in worldwide. However‚ both are referring to different meaning. When referring to individuals of more than one species‚ the term ‘’fishes’’ is properly to used. Besides‚ the term ‘’fish’’ is correctly used when referring to one or more individuals of one species. Hence‚ the term ‘’fish’’ is suitable to be refer to 100 Rainbow Trout‚ while two different trout such as Brook Trout and Brown Trout is correctly
