Report abuse
The egg shell in the garbage decomposed only slightly. Bacteria do not like plastic.
The plastic around the surroundings of the egg shell was not a good place for
calcium eating bacteria, so there was an obvious lack in decomposition.
Ice
The egg shell in the ice did not decompose at all. The conditions were too cold for
the bacteria to live in so there was nothing getting at the egg shell.
Materials
1. Water
2. Soil fertilized soil, common waste, vinegar, compost, ice
3. 5 medium buckets
4. 5 egg shells
The compost egg shell turned brownish.
