For food poisoning to occur bacteria need the right conditions.?

Answer 1

Pathogenic bacteria found in food generally require temperatures between 40°F and 135°F to grow. They also need moisture and food. They also tend to be anaerobic so they will survive better in an oxygen deficient atmosphere.

Also bacteria grows from uncaring use like not washing hands after use of the bog and leaving brown stains all over the bog and sink :)

Answer 2

Yes, basically the same four conditions we humans need, Keep them warm, allow them oxygen to breath, feed them and don't let them dry out, for example bacteria will thrive on a fresh cooked chicken left out of the fridge in a warm kitchen for a day or so. This works with most food but especially meat and fish. Removing at least one of the four elements will slow down or stop bacteria growing.

Answer 3

Bacteria - including the kinds that commonly cause food poisoning - tend to favour growing conditions that are warm and moist. There also needs to be a nutrient source, in this case the food that the bacteria is in or on and feeding off of. A lack of antiobiotics and cleaning fluids also allows the bacteria to multiply more freely and quickly, too.
