Foodborne illness is indeed a disease that is transmitted to people by food. Most foodborne diseases are caused by consuming contaminated foods.

EXPLANATION:

In most cases, foodborne diseases are infectious caused by a variety of viruses, bacteria, and parasites. There are also foodborne diseases that are poisonings, which are mostly caused by harmful chemicals or toxins that have contaminated food. However, a foodborne disease can also be caused by other factors. Some of which include contact with animals or through the person-to-person spread.

Foods associated with foodborne illness:

  • Any foods that are touched by a person who is ill with diarrhea or vomiting.
  • Raw foods or animal origins such as raw meat, raw eggs, and unpasteurized milk.
  • Unpasteurized fruit juices or cider.
  • Fruits and vegetables that are contaminated with animal waste when manure is used to fertilize produce in the field.

Symptoms of foodborne illness:

  • Diarrhea or vomiting that typically lasts for 1-7 days.
  • Nausea, cramps, fever, and fatigue.
  • For foodborne illness caused by a pathogen, some people may suffer from the “stomach flu”.

Most of the fats in your diet should come from unsaturated fats. Examples of unsaturated fats are fish, nuts, vegetable oils, and avocados

8-Enzymes are proteins that help break down larger molecules into smaller molecules. Enzymes also speed up or catalyze the rate of chemical reactions. Without enzymes some chemical reactions would be too slow or wouldn't occur at all.

there are many types of enzymes. Each one is specialized to help break down a specific molecule at a specific location in the body.

9-the involuntary constriction and relaxation of the muscles of the intestine or another canal, creating wave-like movements that push the contents of the canal forward.
