Does bacteria on hands impact with mould growth Introduction: Mold is a part of the fungi family, it grows on almost anything with yeast on it if you leave it out for to long. Mold is often occurs on a yeast product like bread and this happens when the bread is in a warm moist conditions for a period of time like 4-10 days. mold on bread is common because bread provides a desirable source of nutrients for mold. These include the bacteria on the bread and the bread needs to moist and relatively warm and humid for it to take place. The mold that usually grows on bread includes Penicillium and Rhizopus. Mould is a form of fungi, fungi can be defined as any of a diverse group of organisms that live by decomposing and absorbing the host as they …show more content…
Purpose Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the wet piece of bread will grow mould first because it has the most moisture and mould needs moisture to grow. We took 3 pieces of bread, 1 dry (toasted), one wet (water), 1 normal and left them to see which kind of bread would grow mould first and how much mould each kind would grow. What We Did Procedure First, we write our names on each of the 3 bags. Then we put a piece of wet bread, dry toasted bread, and a piece of wet bread into the 3 separate bags. After that we seal up the bags and label them. Then finally, we watch! Materials We …show more content…
Day 2 No changes to normal and dry pieces, but wet has grown green mould on one side of the bread. Day 3 No change to dry or normal bread but a wet has 5 1/2 cm of mould and some touching the crust. Day 4 No change for dry and normal bread but wet bread has 7 cm of yellow, white, and green mould. Day 5 No change to normal and dry mould but lots of mould on both sides of wet bread. About 8 cm long of mould. There were lots of colours like black, green, white, and yellow mould. Day 6 Still no mould on final day for dry and normal. Same amount of mould for wet as Day 5. White, yellow, green, and black mould. There is a yellow line of mould across the bread 5 cm long. Conclusion In conclusion my hypothesis was right and the wet bread grew the most (and only) mould. I can logically assume that the more moisture the bread has, the more mould it will grow. This was a fair test because each of the bread pieces had equal time to grow. The End In this experiment the conductor finds out that mould needs moisture thus needs to be included to conduct the experiment. Aim To measure if bacteria on people hands after eating dinner can impact on the mood growth on
a. Water boils to produce steam at 100 C (212 F) b. Water produces gas with sodium metal c. Water and oil separate when combined d. Water dissolves sugar 22. In the experiment, students put brine shrimp in water with different concentration of salt and counted the number. Which of the following changes to the experiment will increase confidence in the validity of the result? a. Count the number of dead brine shrimp instead of living brine shrimp b. Add more brine shrimp to the water with the highest salt concentration c.
The bacteria, which is found in flies’ natural food source rotting fruit, was represented by the yeast, and the sugar was represented by the maple syrup. The purpose was to be able to identify which substances the flies were attracted to the most
My third hypothesis is that the Member’s Mark will hold the most pennies when it is dry because Member’s Mark is two-ply and appears the thickest. PROCEDURE To prepare for both experiments I will acquire five brands of toilet paper, rubber bands, and a stopwatch from local stores. There is no control group for any of the experiments because I am comparing brands of toilet paper.
The disease was caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, which is often carried around by fleas that live on rodents. Scientists in 14th century London, England say that the plague was airborne and that rats had little to do with the spread of it. Medieval doctors believed that the plague had several causes.
Introduction The intent of this experiment is to understand how hot and cold water interact with each other by combining clear hot water and black ice cold water. I hope to learn more about how hot and cold water interact with each other. As of now, I know that cold water is denser than hot water. Knowing this I formed my hypothesis.
The second pandemic(disease), widely known as the "Black Death" or the Great Plague, originated in China in 1334. Also, plague is an infectious disease caused by bacteria called Yersinia pestis. These bacteria are found mainly in rodents, particularly rats, and in the fleas that feed on them. The first signs of the Black Plague in Europe were present around the fall of 1347, and caused about 60% of Europe’s Population to die off from this deadly disease.
“The lack of bread is terrible. Stories arrive every moment from provinces of riots… The price of bread has risen above people’s ability to pay. This causes great misery.” (Document 3)
The first step is to preheat the oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, cut the bread into one inch square pieces and place on a thirteen by nine by two inches baking dish to toast for fifteen minutes. If the bread is stale, you can skip toasting the bread. Before moving on, increase the oven to 350 degrees. Now, in a large saucepan, add the four and one half cups of heavy cream, one and one half cups of milk and three-fourths cup of sugar.
Name: Kianna Quam Speech Title: Flu Shots: What You Need To Know Specific Purpose: I want my audience to understand how flu shots work, and be able to make an educated decision on whether or not they need one. Thesis Statement/Central Idea: Flu shots are an important part of keeping ourselves, along with the people around us, healthy. Introduction Attention-Getting Device: Did you get your flu shot last year?
What is the effect of temperatures 10°C , 20°C, 40°C, 60°C and 70°C ± 1/°C on yeast fermentation when baking bread? ii. Aim: The focal aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect that temperature has on the growth and respiration of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) fermentation. iii.
Sugar/ glucose is an important carbohydrate that can be made during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight. Carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product when energy is released by the breaking down of glucose. This can be used by plant cells in the process of photosynthesis to form new carbohydrates. Yeast is a single-celled fungus that can break down sugars (glucose) to help produce carbon dioxide. Research Question
The fungus grew rapidly with a colony diameter that ranged from 55-70 mm after 5 days of incubation at 28-30 ˚C. A. niger showed white color at the beginning and turned black with rough/ granular surface as the colony matures. The reverse side is pale yellow in color when the mold was still young and quickly turned brown with cleft/ fissures when it matured. The mycelia of the fungus were hyaline and septated. Conidiophores were also found to be hyaline and bore a globose vesicle which was covered entirely by phialides that radiated around the vesicle and appeared to be biserate. The conidia were globose with dark
The History of Bread Bread is an essential part of our diets and feels like it has literally been around forever. There is bread, no matter where you travel to and in many different taste, shapes, colors. Bread has been given its own culture through different countries over thousands of years. Bread is a pleasantly soft baked-good that you can find almost anywhere and in almost anything.
Joshua Miller 12/18/17 Fermentation Lab report Introduction The term fermentation refers to the chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, typically involving effervescence and the giving off of heat (wikipedia). Sugars are converted to ethyl alcohol when fermentation happens. In this experiment we determined if yeast cells undergo fermentation when placed in a closed flask with no oxygen. Glucose and yeast are mixed together in a closed flask and allowed to incubate for about one hour.
INTRODUCTION: Quick look at your hands do you see them. (attention) Do I see what you might be asking? Well the millions of bacteria that are currently hanging out on your hands.
