Description: In this experiment, the independent variable was the starting pHs (4, 6, 8) with pH 6 as control. The dependent variable was yeast growth and pH change over time. These results partially support our hypothesis and show that environmental pH can influence yeast growth and survival. Which may help us understand conditions associated with women’s health and yeast infections.
