Which would be needed to compare the effect of two different fertilizers on plant growth?
iVinArrow [24]
A way to measure plant growth. The issue with an experiment like this, is there is no way of telling if the plant would have grown differently if you had not added the extra fertilizers. To properly test this you must have "control" plants that would grow in the same conditions just without any fertilizer. You have to have multiple plants as subjects to get a good amount of data and then take the averages of each fertilizer and compare them that way. (Just as a headsup if you are going to do this as a science fair project, don't use raw egg or unprocessed chicken poop. The egg turns the soil into rock and the chicken feces smells horrible and starts to mold. >< )

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is of concern in burn patients beacuse it can cause infections like AIDS,diabetes mellitus , etc.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common bacteria that can be found in soil, water, and other environmental niches. Burn wounds are intricate microenvironments where bacterial pathogens like P. aeruginosa can cause infections. Typical virulence factors like pyocyanin and pyoverdine expressed at higher levels than they would have under conventional laboratory conditions.

Elastase is secreted as well, is primarily responsible for the host tissues'  degradation. P. aeruginosa infections cause severe consequences mostly in organisms with weakened natural defences. Examples of these circumstances include burn wound patients.
