    strain of bacteria and to observe its characteristics. This same approach can be used when testing for resistance evolution within bacterial strains. Our hypothesis states that bacteriophage will not be present within our sample from East Lake. With the use of a phage buffer and soft agar‚ it provides an even suspension and growth of cells. This is essential for seeing lysis caused by bacteriophage. After 24 hours‚ our data seemed significant as signs of successful infection within the bacteria was not

They are much smaller than eukaryotic cells but are still very complex despite their size. .the cell is surrounded by a cell membrane that enclosees the bacteria cell. They are single celled organisms. Bacteria are prokaryotic cells and therefore do not have a nucleus and do not have a lot of organelles like: mitochondria‚ chloroplasts‚ and other organelles that are usually found in eukaryotic
