Bacteria that causes foodborne illness needs a moist and warm environment in order to grow. In addition if food is at room temperature that can cause bacteria to multiply. Raw food can also cause food to have more bacteria because it has not been killed off by extreme heat.

Bacterial reproduction depends on the favorable temperature, moisture and growth medium.

Further Explanation:

Bacteria is an organism which are classified as the prokaryotic and is a unicellular organism. They possess very simple structure as it lacks a nucleus and mostly has single circular DNA. They also possess the extranuclear DNA known as the plasmid. They are surrounded by two protective covering as they have outer cell wall and an inner cell membrane.

Mostly the bacteria multiplies by the binary fission process in which a single bacterial cell known as the parent replicates its DNA and grows in size by doubling its cellular content. After that the cell splits and creates two identical cells. The reproduction of bacteria is affected by the factors such as temperature, its environment and the moisture.

Introduction of variation into the genetic material occurs by integrating the additional DNA from the surrounding into their own genome. This is a kind of horizontal gene transfer.

There are three different ways of horizontal gene transfer. They are:

1. Transduction

2. Transformation

3. Conjugation

Nope, this is false because there's always time for free time. You might not see it because your busy watching TV or out with friends or sitting on your phone! Its easier to fit this into your schedule if you plan ahead. Hope this is helpful:)

It is sex-linked: genetic red–green color blindness affects males much more often than females because the genes for the red and green color receptors are located on the X chromosome, of which males have only one and females have two.

Answer:T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia,

Explanation:

T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, commonly found in children is a fast-growing increasing type of leukemia also blood cancer in which too many T-cell lymphoblasts are found in the bone marrow and blood affecting them. the presentation of the 15 year old boy with white cell count of 76 x 10 9/L, platelet count of 55 x 10 9/L and a hematocrit of 33% when a white cell differential is performed shows there are problems relating to immature cells found in bone marrows and the white blood cells which are an indication for this type of cancer.
