Project Question: I am going to do an experiment involving observing bacteria in cultured yogurt. I was wondering if leaving yogurt out in warm temperatures will increase or decrease the amount of bacteria in it. Is that a reasonable experiment for a science fair? If not, any suggestions that still has to do with bacteria in yogurt? Thank you!
Project Due Date: March 2014
Project Status: I am conducting my research
