By doing a lab in biology, I remarked that bacteria smelled. A
friend's mother over heard me say this and contradicted my hypothesis. 
She said that it wasn't the bacteria that smelled, but rather it was the 
process of the bacteria rotting the broth that was used in the 
experiment. Which one of us is right? I am also curious where I can find 
more information on this topic.

One question about the experiment also interested me : Why were certain 
orgaisms present after the broth was contaminated? My hypothesis is that 
the broth was a suitable enviroment for these organisms to grow otherwise 
they wouldn't grow right? Well, thank you for your help.
