Does bacteria grow in the cat's water bowl?

They surely would grow there. The cat laps the water and bacteria are left behind. The house is nice and warm and they will grow well. The bowl should be carefully washed and refilled at least once a day.


What makes bacteria grow faster?

Some bacteria are autotrophs. This means they produce their own food, allowing them to grow on their own terms. As well, bacteria grow by binary fission, whereas fungi have to grow by either branching and elongating, or budding, which takes longer.


Does bacteria grow better in moist areas?

yes it grows well in damp dark places.


What four condition must bacteria have in order to breed?

bacteria need other bacteria to reproduce with but they also need oxygen - this is why peat bogs do not rot as well as Egyptian mummies warmth - this is why the frozen wooly mammoth didnt rot i think the third is shelter or something - im not sure :) Science teacher answer: Bacteria need moisture, nutrients and warmth to grow. Most bacteria need oxygen but not all, those that don't are called anaerobic bacteria and are often more dangerous, this is why in science lessons you never seal the petri dish the whole way round because you are less likely to grow the more dangerous variety; those that need oxygen are more likely to grow first and nick all the nutrients before the others get a chance! Sorry but bacteria do not need other bacteria to reproduce many/most/all of them reproduce asexually eg grow copy their DNA and split in two. Secondly as the second reply states they do not always need oxygen but can be anaerobic which means that they produce energy without oxygen. Thirdly low temperatures do not kill the bacteria but slow them down so much that they stop growing and thus making things rot, this is why you should not refreeze thawed meats etc. They also need the following a 'food' source, water (the reason salting or a high sugar content stop food rotting is because the bacteria have no water also works for air dried food like Parma ham or beef jerky) lastly they also need time to grow though admittedly not a lot.


Where can't bacteria survive?

I don't know because thay live every where. Bacteria can't live in the freezer or in an active microwave. A clean kitchen has to be kept very hot or very cold to stay clean. Bacteria multiply faster in temperatures from 10-60 degrees Celsius but otherwise they can live just about anywhere.

What makes Bacteria multiply?

bacteria need to be at the right temperature to multiply (room temperature) which is why we freeze/cook food, temperatures that are to hot and too cold kill the spores (bacteria) and therefore kill them

What is slime forming bacteria in well water?

Slime-forming bacteria in well water are bacteria that produce a sticky or slimy substance as they grow and reproduce. This slime can accumulate on well surfaces and plumbing fixtures, leading to biofouling and potential water quality issues. Regular disinfection and maintenance of the well system can help control slime-forming bacteria.


How does an apple rot?

Well because of bacteria and fungi our food rots. How? Bacteria and fungi grow ON the food or any kind of fruit causing it to decay or rot.
