There is a significant difference on the growth diameter of bacteria and

fungi in the presence of lead in the medium, p(0.00) < 0.05 . Furthermore,
statistical output yields the value of R2 = 0.972 which indicates that the
type of isolate (bacteria or fungi) and type of group i.e. experimental group,
grown in the presence of lead or absence of lead (negative control) accounted
for about 97% of their growth in the presence of lead in the medium.
