Question

In which of the following season food gets spoiled quickly?
A) Summer
B) Winter
C) Rainy
D) All of these

Answer 1

Hint: Food Spoilage is that stage where the consumption of food becomes unsuitable for the consumer. There can be various reasons for this food spoilage like storage of that food item, packaging of that food item, Bacteria and fungi to are the causes behind the spoilage of food.

Complete answer:
Reactions double up as the temperature rises by 10 degrees Celsius. According to this rule, any reaction happens faster in high temperatures. Reactions like oxidation, hydrolysis get faster which results in the spoilage of food in the summer season. The higher temperature gives a chance to microbes so that they can spoil the food. The temperature in winter doesn't touch that height in which bacteria or microbes can grow which makes the winter season less risky in case of food spoilage. Reactions that participate actively in summer for spoilage of food, doesn’t work.

During the Rainy season, the dampness noticeable all-around increases to exceptionally significant levels, thus affecting the microorganisms. Specifically, the organisms will in general develop and duplicate plentifully in such conditions and spoil food without any problem. If bacteria can have warm, humid conditions and adequate nutrient supply, one bacterium can split every half hour (on average) and produce 17 million bacteria in 12 hours.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Note: Food can cause stomach problems: Problem foods include several snacks made from mashed potatoes, which may stay outside for a long time. Cooked food should be stored properly and prepared food is best eaten hot immediately after cooking. If you need to eat it in the future, it should be quickly covered and refrigerated to avoid microbial contamination.
