Food rots once the organism is no longer alive, or the preservatives keeping it from rotting stop working. The tissue in the item start decaying, and often bacteria will start building up in the remainder of the food.
Rot, e.g. Dry rot has set in to the timber framework of the roof...... or, the tree is dead and has gone has rotten.
No. Dead things don't reproduce. Ever. They're dead. Viruses have characteristics of both non-living and living organisms and they can reproduce inside the host cell. nope, dead things dont do anything but rot. cause they are dead
Living animals do not rot because they have biological processes that maintain their tissues and organs. Once an animal dies, bacteria and fungi start breaking down its tissues, leading to the decomposition process known as rotting.
Yes, pine cones can rot over time, especially when exposed to moisture and environmental factors that promote decay like fungus and bacteria. The decomposition process of pine cones involves breaking down of the materials they are composed of, such as cellulose and lignin, by microorganisms.
White rot fungi are able to break down lignin along with cellulose and hemicellulose in wood, resulting in white-colored decay. Brown rot fungi primarily degrade cellulose and hemicellulose in wood, while leaving behind lignin, resulting in a brown-colored decay. White rot fungi are more effective at decomposing lignin compared to brown rot fungi.
Decay is a word for dead things/rot.
various decomposers such as bacteria and fungus
rot and other dirty things
They dont leave dead things to sit out and rot away. GROSS :(
decomposors
no it can not
Bacteria, mold, and yeasts can cause food to rot.
Light???
oxidisation
Bacteria and fungi.

A foot rot is a bacterial infection, so I guess bacteria cause foot rot .
