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.
