Brainstorm

What is my project about?

Well, I'm interested in microorganisms like mold.

Hey! I could do my experiment on mold!

I know what my question is! It's: What

conditions keep mold from growing on

bread?

Research

Mold Facts

  • The average growth time for mold is anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks.
  • Bread mold can be any color

from orange to green.

Results

Well my results were that if you leave bread in the bathroom for at least 2 weeks it will grow mold

The bread slices 1 & 3 in the bathroom was the only place with mold & all the other locations had no mold. I ended my experiment early because my dad accidentally threw away my Controls while he was cleaning out the fridge.

Of the eight locations and three controls,

two of three slices in my bathroom grew

mold. I can see that I would not want to

leave a loaf of bread in a bathroom or leave

bread outside. I would not want an animal to eat my bread or bread growing mold. I had to end my experiment early because my controls

were compromised.

My hypothesis matched about half my data.

My hypothesis was that mold would grow in my

bathroom and my mom's car.

I was a little surprised about no mold growing in my mom's car, but I guess that is just how it turned out. I did notice that in humid areas, like bathroom, mold grew. If I had additional time there may have been mold in more areas.

If I tried my experimant in more places and different times during the year, I may get better, worse or the same results. If you kept

bread in a freezer, it would be less likely to grow mold over a period of about three weeks to a couple months.

My Moldy Weeks

Conclusion

Bread mold growth varies upon the type of bread owned

The experiment time was from 11/11/11-12/7/11
