The Rotten Melon

Near the start of the year we were doing science work on how food goes off. Sam brought in a Galia melon that was starting to go off. At that stage it looked like a normal melon with a bit of mould on the bottom. We left it on the window sill since then and we have been keeping an eye on it ever since. Now it doesn’t look like a normal melon at all. It has become very mouldy and mushy. It has also shrunk and got wrinkly. There is only a little smell from it. This is Science Week and we thought you’d like to see a photo of it.. This is what the melon looks like now:
