Project Title: Do Air and Light Affect Decomposition?
Project Abstract: Summary: I did this project to see which will decay faster: objects in light and air, objects with light and no air, objects with no light and air, or objects with no light and no air. I think that objects exposed to light and air will decay the fastest. My project, "Do Air & Light Affect Decomposition?",must be done of a period of four weeks(28 days).
I observed that the apple decayed the fastest and the tray in the dark decomposed most. I needed 2 trays, apple slices, 4 pieces of bread, fresh green leaves, 4 pieces of cardboard, and 1 cardboard box. In conclusion, my hypothesis was incorrect. The tray in the dark contained more decomposition than the other tray did.
