What will happen if we have three petri dishes lined with agar…  Touch one of them and seal  Breathe in one and seal  Leave one completely alone to use as our control

 The bacteria is going to be yellow with a lot of colonies  Touch will have more colonies than breath  Nothing will grow in the control petri dish

 13 colonies of bacteria the first day  70 colonies the second day  81 colonies the third and last day  Biggest colony was twenty two millimeters long

 8-11 colonies on the first day  The second day it stayed the same  The third day had twenty one colonies  The biggest colony was seven millimeters long

Touch Breath

Number of Colonies

 Our hypothesis was correct!  We successfully grew bacteria in both petri dishes  Touch dish had the most  Control had none.

The Brown Mountain Lights are said to be spirits of Native Americans. The theory is that methane gas rising into the air and then burns.
