Introduction: Bacteria need specific living conditions to survive. The ideal conditions for bacterial growth is a warm‚ dark‚ and damp environment. This provides the maximum effectiveness for bacterial growth. The areas in our school that contain the most bacteria would be the water fountains because the bacteria from our mouths drop off on to it when we drink from it‚ and because water fountains are not regularly washed in comparison to weight equipment. Water fountains also provide a warm damp

Eucalyptus and Colloidal Silver. Obtain two nutrient agar plates and using a permanent marker draw four quadrants on the bottom of each agar plate. Using a sterile pipet transfer 250 ml of E. coli broth to the middle of each petri dish and evenly spread bacterial culture around the agar plate. Cover and allow the culture to soak into agar for at east 15 minutes. Using sterile forceps‚ carefully place one filter disk from designated sample into the middle of each

Based on Ali G’s video about human rights on YouTube and the article by Peter L. Patrick entitled Jamaican Creole Morphology and Syntax‚ in terms of pronunciation‚ Jamaican Patois speaker as mentioned in the article normally substitute the /th/ sound to /d/ or /t/ sound.

However‚ in the video‚ we noticed that the word “think” is pronounced the way the native speaker of English would pronounce. His pronunciation

MICROBIOLOGY COURSEWORK The effect of antibiotic concentration on bacterial growth Introduction Null Hypothesis- Increasing the antibiotic concentration has no effect on bacterial growth. Experimental Hypothesis- Increasing the antibiotic concentration decreases bacterial growth. Scientific Theory Bacteria are prokaryotes and can be identified by their shape. Spherical bacteria are called cocci‚ rod shaped bacteria are called bacilli‚ spiral shaped bacteria are called spirilla and

(Westneat 1995). Due to their different morphologies‚ different fishes within the species prey on different types of food. The main difference making up the separate morphologies‚ and subsequently feeding habits‚ is the functional and mechanical properties of the jaw. Due to so many variations of the functional morphologies of feeding‚ many studies have been conducted on wrasse feeding behavior to distinguish how the different modifications of morphology have become so diversified using the same
