That will depend upon the specific bacterium. Some will grow rapidly at room temperature, others will not.

What happens to bacteria at 63 degrees?
Bacteria in food reaching a temperature of no more than 63c is very dangerous. Bacteria thrive at this temperature. Food is in what can be referred to as a 'high risk or danger zones'. Food should not be consumed and should be destroyed.
At what temperature will bacteria lay dormant on food in a freezer?
Food poisoning bacteria go dormant at and below freezing. All bacteria are dormant below -17ºC or 1.5ºF
What happens to bacteria at 63 degree celsius?
Bacteria in food reaching a temperature of no more than 63c is very dangerous. Bacteria thrive at this temperature. Food is in what can be referred to as a 'high risk or danger zones'. Food should not be consumed and should be destroyed.
When food is put in the refrigerator all bacteria?
The growth of bacteria slows but does not stop. The food will still spoil but at a much slower rate.
What is one factor that affect the growth of bacteria in food?
Ripeness
Why does storing food in fridges help to preserve food?
Food spoilage is caused by bacteria multiplying. Bacteria thrive in room temperature, so refrigerators keep food at a temperature that bacteria do not like, which slows their ability to reproduce.
What happens to bacteria in frozen food?
The bacteria in frozen food die. This is because bacteria need food, water, and a warm temperature in order to survive.
Why heat is used to preseve food?
Heat of itself does not spoil food. What spoil the food is the growth of bacteria in the food.At low temperatures (in a fridge) these bacteria only grow slowly but when the food warms up to room temperature the bacteria grow faster and the food will spoil. The reason for this is that for every 10oC rise in temperature the rate of chemical reactions (ie the metabolic rate of the bacteria) doubles. Obviously above a certain temperature (boiling point) the heat is so much that the bacteria are killed off.

What do bacteria need to thrive?
PH, temperature, food, moisture, and more PH, temperature, food, moisture, and more

Why should the temperature of a fridge be 0-5 degrees celsius?

When food is put in the refrigerator all bacteria?
The growth of bacteria slows but does not stop. The food will still spoil but at a much slower rate.
What temperature does bacteria thrive in food tech?
Any temperature less than around 60 °C for most bacteria. However, there are bacteria in food that can survive past 100 °C. Freezing does not significantly kill bacteria, but puts it into a dormant stage, where they can no longer thrive and reproduce.
Why does foods happen?
Food spoilage happens when bacteria in the food is allowed to grow. The food heats up to room temperature or hotter and the bacteria grow allowing it to spoil.
Does cold rice have bacteria in it?
It depends how long it was left at room temperature before being refrigerated. It is, surprisingly, a food with a high risk of carrying food poisoning bacteria, as it can hold the bacteria at slightly-higher-than-room-temperature (their optimum breeding temperature) for longer than many other foods. Once cooled, the bacteria are still there.
