Question
1. Are there
different kinds of
bacteria? What's
your evidence?

In previous NetLogo
computer model
(LAB SIMULATIONS)
We just had one kind
of bacteria in the
simulation.
Our evidence is in the
simulation in which we
didn't call the bacteria
different names. They
all had the same basic
shape and
reproduction rate.
There were different
colors, but that doesn't
seem like the same
thing as a different
kind.
In Addie
Addie got infections
of two different
kinds. Our evidence
is that the doctors
called the bacteria
MRSA for one kind
and
Stenotrophomonas
for the second kind.

In the Petri
dishes
What do we want in
a new computer
model?
In the Petri dish
we had more
than one kind
because each
colony looked
different.
