Konsumenter utsätts dagligen för reklam i form av traditionell masskommunikation, så frekvent att de knappt lägger märke till den överhuvudtaget. Spelreglerna för verksam och lönsam marknadsföring har idag omskrivits och därmed har effektiviteten hos traditionell marknadsföring minskat med tiden. Forskare påstår däremot att gerillamarknadsföring är en typ av marknadsföring som ökar i effektivitet.Consumers are exposed daily to advertising in the form of traditional mass communication, so frequent that they hardly notice it at all.

Kiselalger, vattenlevande, mikroskopiska organismer med kiselskal, används som bioindikatorer för vattenkvalitet eftersom de är artrika och påverkas av sin omgivning. Processen kallas Kiselalgsmetoden och utförs genom en standard, en standard jag valde att analysera. Proven tas från stenar i vattendrag och sedan görs ett preparat som är fixerat på objektglas som kan undersökas i mikroskop genom aDiatoms, water living, microscopic organisms with silicon shells, are used as bioindicators of water quality because they are diverse and influenced by their surroundings. The process is called The Diatom Method and is accomplished through a standard, a standard I have chosen to analyze. The samples are taken from stones in water streams and then a preparation is made to fix the algae on slides t
