Spores in the air or contamination through some sort of insect interaction. In an open system, there are billions of microbial agents floating around. With an open container containing a food source and time, the likelihood of contamination is nearly %100.

Answer:

Spores transported by the air.

Explanation:

Hello,

In biology, molds account for masses of mycelium, that is vegetative filaments or hyphaes and fruiting structures, produced by various fungi like Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Rhizopus. Such fungi, are associated with food spoilage and plant diseases, therefore, when they reproduce, they release spores which are spread to the air and subsequently transported to suitable sources of substrate allowing them to grow again. In such a way, since the jar was uncovered, spores transported by the air were allowed to get into the soup and grow there.

Best regards.

Thermal energy always moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

\fbox{Law -Based \: on \: laws \: of \: thermodynamic}

Explanation:

At constant pressure Thermal energy always moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level, laws of thermodynamics prove that.

Nature always likes to attain equilibrium either it's movement of heat energy or flow of water from higher region to lower region. The first and second law of thermodynamics are profe of that, the first law says that the total energy of universe is Constant. Energy can not be destroyed it always changes from one form to another, by work and heat. The second law explains why thermal energy moves from a greater energy level to a lesser energy level, it deals with the change in entropy of a system and surrounding and states heat flows from hot environment to cold environment.
