Description
Using genetically modified microbes and putting them into plants or trees. Use nitrogen in the microbes to give the crop/tree energy and what it needs to grow. Replace the synthetic fertilizers that help the plant grow since fertilizers cause greenhouse gas emissions. By cutting out synthetic fertilizer that releases greenhouse gas emissions, you can still have crops, but harmful chemicals won’t be released.
Evidence of Work
Content
Exudate: A fluid contains solutes, protein cells, or cellular debris discharged into nearby tissues or on tissue surfaces, caused by inflammation or injury
Effector: A molecule that binds protein and affects the function of that protein
Rhizosphere: The region of soil in the vicinity of the plant roots in which chemistry and microbiology is influenced by their growth, respiration and nuclear exchange
Bulk soil; soil outside the rhizosphere

Reflection
I was paired with Sophia and Peter in this project. We had a lot of fun. Maybe a little to much fun. We did good work but weren't very productive. I wish we did something different and not greenhouse gasses, We could have picked a better project and picked something we could actually make. We can't make genetically modified microbes right now. Overall I did like it because it was paired with my friends.
