8. The 6th grade students were each given an assignment to plan an experiment on microorganisms that they could do at home. Roah wants to find out if light affects mold growth. For his experimental plan he wrote that he would place a slice of bread in a zip lock bag and put it in a warm, light place. He would then place a 2nd slice of bread in another zip lock bag and place it in the refrigerator. After a few days of observations, he would write his conclusion. This experiment would not be valid because of this. A200

9. What is he can only change one variable? (Either the light or the temperature. Not both.) A 200

24. Tallon works for a cheese manufacturing plant. His job is to check the progress of the cheese as it cures. He knows that the microorganisms used in the cheese-making process take time to mature. His observations helped him to create the chart below. As Tallon checked four batches at different places in the plant, he observed and recorded the following: Batch A: Firm texture, sharp taste. Batch B: Rubbery texture, mild taste. Batch C: Firm texture, sharp taste, and rancid odor. Batch D: Firm texture, mild taste. Three hours-curds form 24 hours-rubbery stage 72 hours-firm stage, mild flavor 1000 hours-firm stage, sharp flavor 1500 hours-firm stage, sharp flavor, rancid odor According to the chart, this batch of cheese had cured the shortest amount of time. B 500

25. What is Batch B? B 500

27. What is remove harmful bacteria? C 100

28. A good way to use microorganisms as a decomposer would be to do this. C 200

29. What is use it in a compost pit. (place where organic materials become soil) C 200

30. The 6th grade students were given an assignment to prepare an experiment on microorganisms at home that they could share with the class. Bayli grew mold on potato slices in four different temperatures. She carefully recorded her date, took pictures of the growth and wrote a complete conclusion. Wyatt grew fungi on bread; he tested the effects of the amount of moisture on the growth of fungi. He explained to the class what he had learned with the help of a graph. Jenna wanted to test different foods to see which one would grow fungi best. She wrote a hypothesis and carefully monitored he project and recorded her data. She explained to the class which food worked best. Enzo wanted to test whether fungi would grow better in a dark area or a light one. He wrote a problem, did research, wrote a hypothesis and procedure, kept data and wrote a conclusion. The students were trying to answer this question. C 300

31. What do microorganisms need to survive? C 300

32. DAILY DOUBLE C 400 DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager

34. What is all of them? C 400

35. Caden wonders if a certain bacteria can survive being frozen. This could be his hypothesis. C 500

36. What is “If bacteria are frozen, they will die.” C 500

68. Zion was watching microorganisms move through a microscope. She wanted to get a good grade on her written description of her observations. To get all of the points possible she needed to use scientific language in her description to her classmates. Look at the following sentence that she wrote as she watched a Euglena move across the slide. “A long thin pointy creature with a single hair-like tail wiggled its tail and pushed itself across the view area of the microscope several times.” The clearest statement of what she saw is this.
