This picture was taken of some mud and water and possibly algae. The sample was taken at around 4:30pm, April 18th, 2019 from the surface of the pond outside of Baxter Lecture Hall. The sample was obtained by scooping some mud off the surface with a clean lid from a plastic cup from Chandler.
Since the sample seems to be mostly plant matter, without anything resembling bacteria or other living, moving organisms, this sample is under the domain Eukarya since it is plant matter like algae.
