What is control experiment?• when designing an experiment to test a hypothesis it is necessary to
do a second test in addition to the first experiment. In the second experiment all the factors except the variable factor that is under investigation are kept constant.

Discovery of Penicillin• What is penicilline
lexander Fleming, a doctor by profession, involved in an experiment on disease causing bacteria. During the experiment, he observed that the bacteria has got destroyed in some of the bacterial cultures prepared by him. Fleming developed a hypothesis on the above observation, carried out several experiments to test the hypothesis and finally came up with a ground braking discovery. His discovery was that a fungus that has entered the bacterial culture accidentally, secreted a chemical substance that destroyed the bacteria. This secretion is the antibiotic Penicillin secreted by the fungus Penicillium. Today it is an essential antibiotic in the field of medicine.

Simple microscope (Convex lens/Magnifying lens)
![Page 11: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Principle of Simple Microscope• A simple microscope works on the principle that when a tiny object is
placed within its focus, a virtual, erect and magnified image of the object is formed at the least distance of distinct vision from the eye held close to the lens.
• According to the above observation, it is concluded that the distance between the convex lens and the object is an important parameter to get a clear image with maximum magnification
![Page 12: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Uses of Simple Microscope• Following are the important uses of simple microscope:
• The simple microscope is commonly used by watch makers to see the magnified view of small parts of a watch.
• It is also used by the jewelers to see the magnified view of the fine parts of jewellery.
• Simple microscope is used to see the enlarged image of letters of a book, textures of fibers or threads of a cloth.
• Simple microscope is used to see the magnified view of different particles of different types of soils.
• It is used by palmists to see enlarged view of the lines of our hand.
• Simple microscope is used by skin specialists to find out various diseases of skin.
• It is also used to see the details of stamp and engravings.

Compound Microscope
![Page 14: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The lens kept closer to the eye is called the eye piece, and the lens kept close to the object is called the objective. To obtain a highly magnified image using two lenses with different curvatures, you should use the lens with the lesser curvature as the eye piece and the lens with the
greater curvature as the objective.You may have experienced the problems given below in doing activity• Difficulty in placing the two lenses on the same line.• Image get curved and appear coloured near the edges of the mirror.• Difficulty in getting the fine adjustment of the lenses
![Page 15: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Optical Microscope / Light Microscope
![Page 16: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Principle of compound microscope• A compound microscope works on the principle that when a tiny
object to be magnified is placed just beyond the focus of its objective lens, a virtual, inverted and highly magnified image of the object is formed at the least distance of distinct vision from the eye held close to the eye piece.
![Page 17: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Construction of compound microscope• A compound microscope consists of two convex lenses: an objective
lens O of small aperture and an eye piece E of large aperture. The lens which is placed towards the object is called objective lens, while the lens which is towards our eye is called eye piece. These two convex lenses i.e. the objective and the eye piece have short focal length and are fitted at the free ends of two sliding tubes at a suitable distance from each other. Although the focal length of both the objective lens and eye piece is short, but the focal length of the objective lens O is a little shorter than that of the eye piece E. The reason for using the eye piece of large focal length and large aperture in a compound microscope is, so that it may receive more light rays from the object to be magnified and form a bright image
![Page 18: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In handling an optical microscope it is important to follow the instructions given below• Before observing any object under the the microscope, place the
microscope on• a flat table or surface and adjust the objective with the lowest
magnification in line• with the optical tube.• • Place the microscope in a place having strong sunlight or an artificial
source of• light. (Ensure that direct sunlight does not fall on the mirror.)• • Observe through the eyepiece and adjust the lens to get maximum light.• • Mount the specimen on a glass slide and cover it with a coverslip.• • Place the prepared slide over the aperture on the stage of the microscope
and fix• it with the clips.• • Observe through the eyepiece and adjust the optical tube carefully till an
image is• seen.• • Make use of the fine adjustment and get a clear image. (When observing
it is• better to use the fine adjustment. The right hand can be used to make
adjustments• while the specimen can be observed through the left eye. It is important to
keep• both eyes open when you observe.)• • After observing, take the optical tube upwards using the coarse
adjustment.• • Remove the specimen, and wipe the lenses and stage with a dry cotton
cloth.• • When carrying the microscope from one place to another, keep its base
on the• palm of the hand, and handle it firmly at its arm.• • To provide a dust free environment, cover the microscope with a plastic
cover• and keep inside a wooden box.• • If the microscope has to be stored for a long time without using , the
objective• lenses and eye pieces shoud be removed and place them in a decsicator
containing• a dehydrant such as calcium chloride or silica gel.

• Antibiotics
• What is antibiotics?• An antibiotic is a substance produced by one micro-organism that is capable of
destroying or inhibiting the growth of another micro-organism.• The chemical substances that destroy the bacteria are called antibiotics.
Antibiotics are used to cure diseases infected by bacteria and some fungi. (Antibiotics do not harm human body cells)
• antibiotics are used to control infectious diseases in humans and also in animals useful to them. Even though antibiotics are not harmful to human body cells, side effects such as allergies can occur. Antibiotics are not effective against viruses.

unicellular organisms.
![Page 35: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Bacteria• Causative bacteria for tuberculosis, damages the lungs or bones in the early
stages.• Causative bacteria for syphilis damages reproductive organs in the early stages.• Causative bacteria for pneumonia damages lungs.
• The diseases may spread to other parts of the body due to the improper treatment. Some bacteria secrete digestive enzymes which digest parts of some organs in the body while some species of bacteria secrete toxic substances causing diseases.

Food spoilage• Food spoilage is the change of physical and chemical nature of the
food and as a result food become unsuitable for consumption
There are three ways of food spoilage
Lipids and oil -
Rancidification
Carbohydrate -
Fermentation
Protein - Putrefacti
on
![Page 46: Scientific investigation of the environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ef7dba1a28abf2248b45c5/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Commonly, food spoilage occurs due to bacteria and fungi. If fully ripen fruits or cooked food is kept uncovered, spoilage occurs more quickly. The fruits and food get spoiled due to the action of the digestive enzymes secreted by the micro-organisms. Spoiled food is not suitable for consumption.
• If fresh meat or fish is kept uncovered flies will bring different types of bacteria and deposit on them and due to the activity of these bacteria food get spoiled.
• Bacteria and fungi grow very fast under warm conditions. Hence, food is subjected to spoilage at room temperature (25oc - 32oc). You can minimize this spoilage by keeping food in a refrigerator (4oc) or a freezer(-20oc).
• Examples : milk, meat, fish• Activity of the microorganisms can be controlled by adding chemicals that preserve food, e.g.
fruit juice, cordials. Microbial activity can be prevented by adding salt or keeping food dipped in thick honey. (fruits stored in syrup, lime pickle, “jadi” and dried fish are some examples).
