Heredity<span>, </span><span>the sum of all biological processes by which particular characteristics are transmitted from parents to their offspring. The concept of heredity encompasses two seemingly paradoxical observations about organisms: the constancy of a </span>species<span> from generation to generation and the </span>variation<span> among individuals within a species. Constancy and variation are actually two sides of the same coin, as becomes clear in the study of </span>genetics<span>.

Which food is at a temperature that allows bacteria to grow well ? A) a roast at 125•F (52•c) B) hamburgers at 165•f (74•c) C) p
Lilit [14]

The correct answer is A) A roast at 125°F (52°C)

Explanation:

In general terms, bacteria thrive at warm temperatures; this means bacterial growth is lower at extremely hot/cold temperatures, but it is higher at warm or medium temperatures. Indeed, the ideal temperature for bacteria to develop and reproduce is between 4° C and 60°C. This implies from the options given the roast at 52°C represents an ideal temperature for the growth of bacteria. Also, other options include temperatures above 60°C, and therefore do not allow bacteria to grow well.
