  1. Bacteria Growth on the Agar Plates

  2. Sterile Free from live bacteria or other micro-organisms: • a sterile operating area • sterile instruments. autoclave

  3. Agar • A gelatinous material derived from certain marine algae. • used as food for bacteria and as a thickener in many food products (carrageenan)

  4. inoculate • To introduce micro-organisms or infectious material into a culture medium.

  5. Variables Independent Variables • The factor that is purposely changed EX: The different locations to be swabbed Dependent Variable • The factor that you expect to change as a result of what you purposely changed. EX: the amount of bacteria that grows

  6. Bacillus subtilis
