Question

Read the statements and determine the correct answer for each blank.

Answer 1

Microorganisms that cause diseases are known as pathogens. They thrive best between the temperatures of 41°F and 135 °F. Because room temperatures are usually around 70°F, it helps the growth of spoilage-causing bacteria.

Explanation:

Most microbes are belong to four main groups of bacteria, virus, protozoa and fungi. ''Disease-causing microbes'' can also be called as ''pathogens'', that type of microbes or germs are mostly responsible for the cause of infectious diseases.

Pathogens grow best at temperatures from 41 ° to 135 °F. They bloom at temperatures from 70 to 104 ° F. Almost all food-borne pathogens are ''aerobic'' and requires increase in oxygen. Most bacteria cannot live at temperatures which is up to 120°F, and if you raise the temperature, you can kill most of them.

Answer 2

Answer:

pathogens, 41°, 135°, room temperature
