Maria wondered if different colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple) of plastic wrap affected the time for bread to mold. she also wrapped a slices of bread in clear plastic wrap to see how they may normally mold. before wrapping the same type of bread (wonder whole wheat), she placed 5 ml of water in the center of each slice. the slices were of the same size and wrapped in the same manner and kept in a dark space at 75 degrees fahrenheit. she measured the area of mold growth for one week after the mold first appeared. she observed 25 slices of bread for each color of wrap and the clear wrap as well.
