None of those options are correct.

Fungi produce,naturally, antibiotics that will kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria.
This is useful for them to limit competition in their natural environment but it's also useful for us because it will kill bacteria that cause us infections.

The only thing scientists had to do is isolate that antibiotic.

Some antibiotics that were developed from fungi: penicillin and cephalosporins.

Why did the students ensure that the conditions in both aquariums were identical

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Logically, if you are transporting an inhabitant of one aquarium to another, the conditions must be similar if not identical. When conducting experiments, the conditions must also be quite similar in order for tests to be accurate. Perhaps the inhabitants of the aquariums must need to same conditions in order to survive as well. I hope this helps!
