Some bacteria, like many Bacilllus species, form endospores when they run out of food. Endospores are resistant to heat, dessication, weak acid, etc.

How does pasteurization prevent food spoilage?
The main way that pasteurization methods prevent food spoilage is by removing the bacteria from the food. This is done by heating the food until it is hot enough to kill the bacteria and then holding it there long enough to make sure that all bacteria are killed.

True or false Food contains bacteria naturally there is nothing that can be done to stop the transmission of theses organisms?
False. If food is heated high enough(pressure cooking) and long enough it will kill all bacteria and their spores.

How does smoking food kill bacteria?
Because the heat from the smoke is hot enough to cook and season it as well.
Why does food rot when it is left out in the open?
It is due to the bacteria and other miniature germs present in the air getting interaction with the food molecules. When there is enough moisture, either on or in the food, bacteria, fungi, and other decomposers can survive on the food. Once they do, the bacteria consume the food, using it up and replacing it with their waste products. Some of these taste bad, and/or make you sick. That is why you can get food poisoning, even if you cook the spoiled food, because heat doesn't destroy the toxins left behind by the bacteria.
How bacteria get their food?
Bacteria get their food by absorbing it. Many bacteria will photosynthesize just like plants do in order to get food.
Under what conditions do bacteria thrive and reproduce frequently by Binary fission?
Bacteria thrive and reproduce by binary fission when: 1- there is enough water 2- there is enough space for the population to grow 3- when their wastes have not accumulated 4- when their is enough oxygen in the air.
