There is no explanation to why things exist because the existence of anything is due to random events.

Microbes help by breaking down dead decaying material in the nutrient cycle or they carry out specific functions with a symbiotic relationship with other organisms (e.g. nitrogen fixing bacteria have a symbiotic relationship with plants).

What would the microbes do after eating up all the oil?

After consuming the oil, the microbes would metabolize it into simpler compounds to generate energy and grow. Some microbes may also store excess energy as intracellular reserves or grow and reproduce to increase their population size. Eventually, they may return to a dormant state until they encounter more oil or another suitable food source.


How does fungus get inside of you?

Through microbes you breath in then the microbes settle and grow into fungus


How does dehydration prevent microbes from growing in food?

Dehydration removes moisture from food, creating an environment where microbes cannot thrive because they require moisture to grow. Without water, bacteria and other microorganisms are unable to reproduce or metabolize effectively, decreasing the risk of foodborne illnesses. Additionally, dehydration can inhibit enzymatic activity in microbes, further preventing their growth in food.


What attracts fungus to reproduce on a certain substance?

the microbes in the moisture of a stale food attracts fungus to reproduce ,where the stale food becomes the substrata for the fungus to grow and multiply.


Which microbes are prevented from spreading and how these ways work?

Microbes can be prevented from spreading through measures such as regular handwashing, disinfection of surfaces, and proper food handling practices. For example, handwashing with soap and water helps to remove microbes from the hands, while disinfecting surfaces kills microbes present on them. Proper food handling practices, such as cooking food to the appropriate temperature, help to kill microbes that may be present in the food.

What effect did salt have on the microbes to a spil food?

It depends on the amount of salt. It can "pull" the water out of the microbes, killing them. This is the reason salt is used to preserve food as microbes can't grow on very salty food.


What food decay?

Its when Microbes(bacteria and fungi) grow on food causing it to decay and rot.They will multiply while on the food.


Which food has been preserved by taking away a substance that the microbes need in order to grow and reproduce?

Water is one thing that is removed to preserve food. For example jerky. Taking away microbes by sterilizing, you prevent their regrowth. For example canned food.


What food does microbes need to survive?

Microbes need a food to survive

How do the microbes damage the food?

Microbes are decomposers. And they will begin the process of removing nutrients from food by breaking down the food.

How and why does food spoil?

Food spoils/goes rancid/goes off when microbes on the food begin to grow, and reach levels which would make eating the food unpalatable/potentially harmful. Most microbes love living in an environment which is slightly warm, with a food source and some liquid (the last two things are generally provided by the food item they are living on). Putting your food in the fridge or freezer reduces the temperature which the microbes live in, hence they cannot breed as quickly so your food remains fresher for longer.


What food have microbes in them?

all of them
