- There are about 200 to 500 species of bacteria present in pitcher plant fluid. A few common species seem to be members of groups known to produce compounds that affect the surface tension of their medium. Changing the surface tension allows relatively light insects to drop into the liquid. http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/inkfish/2016/12/12/bacteria-help-pitcher-plants-trap-prey/#.wfcvepkrkuk 4 comments science

- Making their own clouds scientists have discovered a new way that fat water droplets take shape. Carbon-containing molecules envelop the exterior of developing droplets and reduce surface tension, allowing more water to condense onto the drop. This results in droplets that are about 50 percent wider https://www.sciencenews.org/article/organic-molecules-help-fatten-cloud-making-water-droplets 14 comments science
