Sound Booth Construction
Students explore the sound dampening ability of numerous materials by designing and prototyping model sound booths. As a result, students learn about how sound is reflected, absorbed and travels through various materials, thus giving them an overview of sound dampening, energy absorption and sound propagation in the context of engineering. Students also create blueprints and document their findings in a formal lab report.

Light and electron microscope studies of host-parasite relations in a mycoparasite
Light microscope studies of the mycoparasite Piptocephalis
virginiana revealed that the cylindrical spores of the
parasite became spherical upon germination and produced 1-4
germ tubes. Generally t"l.vO germ tubes were produced by each
spore. When this parasite was inoculated on its potential
hosts, Choanephora cucurbitarum and Phascolomyces articulosus,
the germ tube nearest to the host hypha continued to grow and
made contact with the host hypha. The tip of the parasite's
