 B). A slime mold is a thing of beauty. In spring and summer period, slime molds grow vigorously, and the single slime mold also grow into a strong shape. Surely, growing in the group way is the method of living to them.
+== '''EXPERIMENT-GROWTH OF SLIME MOLDS''' ==
+'''''Fourth try - on the paper from 1st February to 5th February'''''
+From last experiments and studies, the topic 'how can slime molds alive' is more important for me.
+With the living sample from Miga, there was another try to grow slime molds. Luckily, the slime molds alive on the wet paper. Controlling the temperature in a relatively stable situation(20℃-25℃), keeping the paper wet, using the clean oats, the slime molds grew in a slow way.

+'''''Fifth try - on the paper from 13th February to 20th February'''''
+The aim of this experiment was to text the necessity of water and the different status of oats. So I made 5 different samples: a) half wet paper with slime molds and half dry paper with clean oats; b) the whole wet paper with slime molds and clean oats lying at 2 sides; c) small amount of boiled oats at centre with slime molds; d) one side with boiled oats and slime molds; e) one side with boild oats and another side with slime molds. Only controlled the temperature in a relatively stable situation (20℃-25℃).
+Finally, there was no slime molds alive in these living environment. Although the boiled oats can provide water but slime molds seem not like boiled food.

+== '''CONCLUSION''' ==
+It is interesting to observe a kind of single-celled organism as a pet to care about their habits. That's not only the reason that they can find the food in a wise way, also they are sensitive with the living environment. The tiny organism also shows the power of life, struggle in the world. Most of their life, they spread fast into anywhere with foods. But they will disappear when they are cold, hungry, thirsty like human. Sometimes they are dry and 'quite' to wait 'Spring', the suitable situation for them.  If anyone would like to grow them at home, you need to be sure that you can control the temperature in a stable way, keep the room wet, and provide clean food to treat them as pet. And it will be a better time to grow them in warm season.
