The Center for Disease control has estimated that illnesses directly resulting from food contamination cause approximately 76 million illnesses‚ 325‚000 hospitalizations‚ and 5‚000 deaths each year in the United States. The rise of food-related illnesses can be mostly attributed to increased eating out. Half of every dollar spent on food in this country is spend on food prepared outside of the home. As the amount of people involved preparing our food rises‚ so does the risk of contracting an illness

Pennsylvania State University Lab Report on Experiment 10- The Chemistry of Natural Waters Introduction What is water hardness? Water is extremely important to all living things and even to non-living things‚ indirectly. Therefore‚ the way water travels and gets to a place is also extremely important because its transportation methods determine the chemicals that get involved and added into the water as it travels. This relates to the hardness of water. The hardness of water is basically caused by the

The purpose for this lab is to get the polluted water to a clarity of 0%. Water pollution is playing a major role in today’s ecosystems because the water is becoming unsafe to live in and unsafe to consume. “Water pollution is any physical or chemical change in water that adversely affects organisms” (Chiras‚ 2015).

Yogurt was choosed to be the best example that contains this bacteria. What happens to be the difference between these two types of bacteria‚ and how are they harmful? The bacteria is considered “Gram-Negative‚” and the substance is considered contaminated when there is more negative bacteria than positive bacteria. This will prove or disapprove
