What do micro organisms need to grow
Correct conditions Rught temperature Nutrients Water and oxygen
29
How do we preserve food
High temperature prevents decay Lack of ocygen Lack of water
30
How do bacteria reproduce
Binary fission | Alows the; ro multiply quckly
31
What happens when food spoils
Bacteria and fungi secrete enzymes Break down food faster Simple nutrients Can be absorbed bia diffusion
32
What stops things like packet food from going off
Lack of water | Onlya little oxygen
33
Vacuum packing
Vacuum extracts oxyegen nothing can grow
34
How do fungi reprroduce
Yeast is a micro fungi Produced asexually Produce a bud The fungi grows a new part of its which eventually breaks off this is a new organism Spores Spores are formed by fungi and released to create new fungi
35
Pathogens
