Paramecium will grow alone and how they will grow when they are grown together: Each paramecium growing on its own will be able to grow and flourish because there is nothing stopping it or competing with it. It will be able to grow to its full capacity. When there are both paramecium’s growing together; one paramecium, the stronger of the two, is going to grow faster and larger than the other. This will cause the weaker of the tow to stop growing. As time goes on the stronger paramecium will eventually take over, and the weaker paramecium will disappear. Explain how you tested your hypothesis. . I filled on test tube with the Caudatum paramecium, another test tube with Aurelia paramecium, and the 3rd test tube contained both parameciums. Each test tube was tested every 2 days by using wet mount slides. Day 0: Tube 1, 2, and 3 remained equal containing 1 Caudatum and/or 1 Aurelia paramecium. Day 2: Tube 1 – 6 Caudatum Tube 2 – 5 Aurelia Tube 3 – 5 Caudatum and 3 Aurelia Day 4: Tube 1 – 14 Caudatum Tube 2 – 27 Aurelia Tube 3 – 11 Caudatum and 16 Aurelia Day 6: Tube 1 – 24 Caudatum Tube 2 – 40 Aurelia Tube 3 – 9 Caudatum and 31 Aurelia Day 8: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 48 Aurelia Tube 3 – 7 Caudatum and 39 Aurelia Day 10: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 50 Aurelia Tube 3 – 5 Caudatum and 46 Aurelia Day 12: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 51 Aurelia Tube 3 – 3 Caudatum and 48 Aurelia Day 14: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 48 Aurelia Tube 3 – 0 Caudatum and 49 Aurelia Day 16: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 48 Aurelia Tube 3 – 0 Caudatum and 49 Aurelia On what day did the Paramecium Caudatum population reach the carrying capacity of the environment when it was grown alone' On the 8th day. How do you know' Because each test tube was tested every 2 days by using wet mount slides, and on the 8th day the results were as follows: Tube 1 – 28 Caudatum Tube 2 – 48 Aurelia Tube 3 – 7 Caudatum and 39 Aurelia
