Project
In My Project i am trying to find out how nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora are reacting to salt and sugar. I'm trying to find out if they prefer one environment more or even die in one. The nematodes stay in petri dishes with water, as we have found out that this is where they have the best chance of survival
General informations about nematodes:

-> tiny, threadlike, colorless, unsegmented roundworms -> over 40.000 species (many are not yet figured out) -> not related to earthworms -> plant-feeding nematodes live in soil -> most of them are to small the be seen with naked eye but the longest known nematode is thirteen meters long and it resides in the sperm whale
