Mary loved having her own garden and would often spend many hours tending to its care. She was meticulous in watering the plants,pulling the dreaded weeds, and harvesting the fruits and vegetables as they ripened. Her garden consisted of corn, tomatoes, greenbeans, okra, zucchini, squash, lima beans, watermelon, and cantaloupe. Often, the garden would produce much more than Mary andher daughter, Sue, could eat. Rather than waste the delicious food, the ladies would spend hours on the weekend canning the excessvegetables and fruit. It was something they had done for many years. On this particular occasion, Sue noticed that the pressure cooker,the instrument used to sterilize the canned food, did not seem to be acting quite right, but the cans were hot when they came out soshe figured everything would be okay.Several months after their weekend of canning, the ladies invited the entire family over for Thanksgiving dinner. The meal consisted ofturkey, ham, chicken, macaroni and cheese, rolls, spinach salad, tomatoes, corn, lima beans, green beans, and okra. All of thevegetables were the ones they had previously canned from their garden. For dessert, they had pecan pie and vanilla ice cream. Thenext day, while most of the family was out shopping, four of the family members were home with blurred vision, dry mouth, and muscleweakness. Mary called the family physician, Dr. Franklin, who told her to take the sick individuals to the emergency room, and he wouldmeet them there. Upon arrival at the ER, Dr. Franklin asked what the family members had eaten for the meals before they developedthe symptoms. The common foods that all of them ate were the chicken, the ham, the tomatoes, the green beans, and the spinachsalad. The doctor determined that the family was suffering from botulism food poisoning. In the United States, foodborne botulismhappens in 15% of cases each year, frequently from foods with a low acidity. He was suspicious of the green beans and tomatoes, eventhough tomatoes are highly acidic. Dr. Franklin also said that using proper methods of microbial control could have prevented theirillness.

Which of the following is an example of microbial control?

a. Sue washes off the vegetables before serving them in a meal.
b. Mary warms food up in a microwave before putting it on the table.
c. Sue uses bleach to clean the kitchen counters.
d. Mary places leftovers in the refrigerator after the meal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option a (Sue........meal) would be the correct answer. Below however is the explanation offered.

Explanation:

Prevention: Clostridium botulinum seems to be a type of bacteria that is prevalent in soils and seems to be present in raw water. As either a resistant spore, this could live in some of these conditions. And when no indications of food contamination become visible, the spores of the whole bacterium would be hard but instead active however after heating. Boil home-processed foods for at least 10 min while feeding. To destroy the activated spores, ten minutes of warming will destroy the toxins. During at least a few thirty minutes, 120 ° of warming can indeed be achieved with the aid of gravity. Discard any containers that appear broken and are therefore bulging, dripping, smelling.Boiling will kill the bacterial spores as well as the toxins it creates. In house soil, bacteria may also be present.

All other three methods are not connected to the case provided. So, the solution here is just the right one.

Answer: A, C, and D

Explanation: i just did it on usatestprep

The arguments that are supported by the diagram depicting the lytic cycle of viral replication are as follows:

Viruses use a host cell to replicate their genome.Viral replication can exponentially increase virus numbers. Viruses destroy host cells upon their release from the cell.

Thus, the correct options are A, C, and D.

What is the Lytic cycle?

The lytic cycle may be defined as a type of cycle that involves the process of lysis and destruction of the infected cell and its membrane. This process occurs when a virus has completely infected a cell and replicates new virus particles by the activity of bursting the cell membrane.

The lytic cycle is considered one of the two cycles of viral reproduction, the name of the other is the lysogenic cycle.

During the lytic cycle, the virus uses a host cell to replicate its genome. After occupying the host cell for the same activity, viral replication can exponentially increase virus numbers. And finally the destruction of cells and release themselves from the cell.

Therefore, the correct options for this question are A, C, and D.
