The purpose of the unknown bacteria lab assignment was to select an unknown bacteria culture and‚ through a series of metabolic tests‚ identify which bacteria genus resided in the pure culture received. A nutrient broth inoculated with bacterial culture (numbered 45‚ henceforth referenced as U45) was selected and a streak plate was made to isolate a pure culture for use throughout the assignment. From the streak plate‚ several slides were made to determine the morphology of unknown 45. A Gram stain

Are GMO’s are No or Go? There is much controversy over whether or not GMO’s‚ or genetically modified organisms‚ benefit us and should be allowed‚ or if they are more harmful and should be banned. Genetically modified foods are beneficial because they save money‚ have greater resistance to pests and viruses‚ and they can hold more nutrition than regular foods. One of the crops that have most widely been genetically modified is corn. Biologists can inject genes in the corn that make the corn resistant
