Biology: Module 4 – Care for Some Bread & Jam?

Posted by jlsgrant in Apologia Biology on October 16, 2010

Of course, as “Murphy’s Law” would have it, mold started to grow after Co-Op had adjourned.  So I just had to share some images…it’s what I do, right?

Now if that isn’t bad enough, in case your appetite is not yet ruined for the day, I pulled out the microscope too!  Now how about some bread and a smear of fresh strawberry jam, with a side of Methylene Blue Chloride? (Click pic to enlarge)

Care for a spot of tea, love?
