In this project, algae was grown, and then microplastics, that had been filtered out of a facial cleanser, were added to the algae in a petri dish. This determined which algae would be the most effective for catching microplastics in and around aquatic environments.
I really like that you have set up your own experiment. The experimental procedure was done very well and your slides are pretty clear. Good job with your project.
