What are the four basic elements for bacteria to grow?
The four basic elements for bacteria to grow are warmth, food, moisture and time. If one or more of these elements are removed, conditions will not be satisfactory for bacteria to thrive.
How fast do bacteria multiply?
In order for bacteria to multiply, they need warmth, moisture, food and time. There is no definitive answer as to how fast bacteria multiply since different bacteria grow at different rates. However, given the right environment, some bacteria can start to multiply immediately.
What happens to the growth rate of bacteria when you freeze them?
Freezing bacterial cultures slows the death rate of the bacteria. When bacteria is frozen it goes into a sleep state and does not grow or multiply.
What makes Bacteria multiply?
bacteria need to be at the right temperature to multiply (room temperature) which is why we freeze/cook food, temperatures that are to hot and too cold kill the spores (bacteria) and therefore kill them
What food decay?
Its when Microbes(bacteria and fungi) grow on food causing it to decay and rot.They will multiply while on the food.
What are the four conditions that bacteria love to help them grow?
sand, water, dirt, snow.
Will you get sick if you eat raw meat that was out of the fridge for a day?
You certainly could. There is bacteria in meat and if it is left out in warm temperatures that bacteria will grow and multiply making it even easier to get sick from it.
IN microbiology what is the primary use of broths?
Broth cultures are used to grow large numbers of bacteria in a small space
Why does the freezer preserve food the best?
Bacteria grows slower at colder temperatures. In room temperature, the bacteria will multiply quickly and create mold, but at lower temperatures, the bacteria grows slower, or wont even grow at all.
Does Bacteria grow on fat?
No, bacteria do not grow on fat
How do bacteria cause an illness as food poisoning?
Food pisoning is most often caused by toxic substances that bacteria found in food produce. The bacteria have grown and multiplied in the food, most often if the food is stored at a certain temperature that must not be too low or too high. The toxins are sometimes produced when the bacteria grow and multiply in the food before eating it. Other times the bacteria produce the toxins when they grow and multiply further inside the stomach and intestines after the food has been eaten.
What bacteria need to divide?
There are four main conditions that bacteria need to divide. These are warmth, food, time and moisture. Many bacteria can grow straight away given the right conditions.
