Are pathogens recyclers in the environment?
no
Do all pathogens need oxygen to grow?
no, not all pathogens need oxygen to grow. pathogens that grow without oxygen can occur in cooked rice, untreated garlic and oil mixtures, and temperature-abused baked potatoes.
What kills pathogens on the skin?
acidic environment
Why do most human pathogens tend to be mesophiles?
Most pathogens are mesophilic because they thrive inside of the human body. Mesophilic pathogens grow at an optimum temperature of 35-37 degrees Celsius, which is the normal human body temperature.
What are pathogens What foods do they grow in?
Pathogens are micro organism that cause illness. They can grow in basically any food. Look up FAT TOM to see how it could grow.
An environment that is free of any pathogens is called?
Sterile
What are some foodborne pathogens that can grow in the refrigerator?
mold
What do pathogens do in an HIV comprised immune system?
grow and multiply
What do pathegens need when they grow?
Pathogens need body tissue to infect and warmth and moisture to grow.
What does parasites need to grow?
The six conditions in which pathogens need to grow are as follows: FAT TOM Food: to grow pathogens need an energy source. Carbohydrates, such as baked potatoes, and proteins, such as beef are some examples. Acidity: Pathogens grow best in food that contains little or no acid. An example of food with a lot of acid is lemons. Food items with little acid include chicken and cooked corn. Temperature: Pathogens grow well in food that as a temperature between 41 degrees Fahrenheit and 135 degrees Fahrenheit. This range is known as the temperature danger zone. Time: Pathogens need time to grow. When food is in the temperature danger zone, pathogens grow. After four hours, they will grow to levels high enough to make someone sick. Oxygen: Some pathogens need oxygen to grow. Others grow when oxygen isn't there. For example, some pathogens that grow without oxygen would grow quickly in cooked rice. Moisture: Pathogens need moisture in food to grow. For example, tomatoes and melons have a large amount of water in them, which means they can easily support the growth of pathogens.
What group do human pathogens belong to?
Most human pathogens belong to the mesophile group because they are able to survive and grow best at moderate and human temperatures.
What do pathogens do in an HIV-compromised immune system?
They grow and multiply with ease.
