Other defining features:
The soil was found in a pot with a plant on a deck. It is right next to Radhika’s house, but there are no roads nearby. Not only is the plant watered daily, but the water from the roof on her house runs off into the pot once in awhile. The pot is leveled.
Naming NotesWe decided to combine our names to create a name for our phage. We used the "R" from Rebekah's name and the "O" and "N" from Jonathan's name to name our phage Ron. Unfortunately, this site does not allow names that are under four characters, so we added an extra "N" to the end of the name.
