It depends entirely on the type of bacteria and the temperature in the fridge.

When food is put in the refrigerator all bacteria grow fairly fast?
yes
Will bacteria die if you put your food in the refrigerator?
Most of the bacteria in the refrigerator will have slow growth or stop grow but it will not kill most bacteria. Spoilage bacteria thrive in refrigerator temperatures so the food will still get spoiled and some bacteria even thrive in the freezer.
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 happen to the bacteria when food is cooked and when food is chilled?
Cooking kills bacteria but not the toxins the bacteria made while growing. Refrigeration does prevent most bacteria but not listeria which can grow in a refrigerator. Botulism is a toxin that does not go away with boiling or cooking.
Since bacteria can't survive in cold conditions will an even colder refrigerator prevent more food spoil?
Bacteria can and do survive cold conditions. They just don't grow. But it is true that a refrigerator set around 36°F will keep food longer than if it were set at 40°F.
What rate does bacteria grow in a refrigerator?
30 degress centergrade!!

yes
What happens to orange juice left in a refrigerator for 5 months?
Eventually bacteria will grow and cause it to spoil.

Why are psychrotrophic bacteria of concern to those in food-service industry?
Because they can grow at refrigerator temperatures, and cause food spoilage.

How low temperature is attained in a refrigerator?
The FDA says on their website to keep the refrigerator set below forty degrees Fahrenheit. "Keeping the refrigerator at 40°F or below is important because - unlike most foodborne bacteria - Listeria will grow in the refrigerator, and it will grow faster at refrigerator temperatures above 40°F. And, the longer ready-to-eat, refrigerated foods are stored in the refrigerator, the more time Listeria has to grow. Finally, Listeria can spread from one food to another through spills in the refrigerator. That's why keeping the refrigerator clean is also important!"

Does bad bacteria grow on food if put in refrigerator hot?
It could. But that's a big what-if. Bacteria need certain temperature to grow. And while hot food in a fridge will become that temp. it will only be there for several minutes tops. Also bacteria hate cold and die when they become to cold. All being said, you can do it safely.
Does Bacteria grow on fat?
No, bacteria do not grow on fat
