Introduce the topic of your paper. What microorganisms are of interest? Habitat? Applications for medicine and/or environment?

Section 1

Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.

Figure 2. A diagram of a (microbial fuel cell) MFC containing a graphite anode that is serving as a final electron acceptor. The bacteria are performing anaerobic microbial oxidation on the various organic compounds present. In the middle of the anaerobic anode and aerobic cathode is a proton diffusion layer that separates them showing that water is formed at the cathode (Franks and Nevin., 2010).

Section 2

Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.

Figure 3. In current producing biofilms bacterial cells conduct electron transfer using membrane bound cytochromes. The bacterial cells use a long range network capable of conducting electron flow from the farthest cells to the closest ones to the anode. Oxidation of the organic substrate leads to a high concentration of protons under the biofilm mass where it is highest towards the anode (Franks and Nevin., 2010).

Section 3

Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.

Conclusion

Overall text length at least 3,000 words, with at least 3 figures.
