A Study of the Badu Mangrove Community at Sydney Olympic Park Abstract A investigation took place at a large mangrove community called the ’Badu Mangroves’. The interactions of organisms and the Badu Mangrove ecosystem were observed. While experiments were carried out to determine the abiotic ( e.g. temperature‚ humidity‚ soil pH ) and biotic ( e.g. number of seedlings distributed throughout a certain area‚ adaptations of animals ) features in the Badu Mangrove community. Aim The aim of this

Evolution Test Notes Giulia Palazzo • THE HARDY- WEINBERG PRINCIPLE: - a mathematical equation created to predict genotype and phenotype frequencies in a population that is not experiencing any selective pressure‚ if model fails evolution must be occurring - Under Mendel’s model‚ the two alleles can be represented by... p + q = 1 (100% of the alleles in the population) where p is the dominant allele and q is the recessive allele - The genotypes can be represented by the equation (p+q)² = p² + 2pq

Tyler Fitzgerald 10/3/08 Science Fair Research Paper The science project to be researched and experimented is whether bacteria can become resistant to antibacterial soaps. Bacteria will be grown in an agar broth containing .01%‚ .1%‚ .5% and 10% antibacterial soap. To fully understand the subject‚ information on everything necessary to conduct this experiment and comprehend the results was researched. Once the experiment is completed a conclusion will be able to be made as to whether

Bacteria are the most ancient life forms‚ most bacteria are so small that under a light microscope you can only see them as little dots. Some groups however grow to larger sizes and have spectacular shapes (1). Bacteria are present in most habitats on the planet‚ growing in soil‚ water‚ acidic hot springs‚ radioactive waste‚ and deep in the Earth’s crust‚ as well as in organic matter and the live bodies of plants and animals (2). Bacteria is mostly thought of as a pathogen‚ while it is true that
