Question 17:Write any two ways by which salmonella bacteria spreads.
The correct answer is -Salmonella bacteria can spread in a number of ways. Here are two common ways:
-
Contaminated food: Salmonella bacteria can be found in a variety of foods, including raw or undercooked meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products. When these foods are not handled or cooked properly, the bacteria can spread and cause illness.
-
Fecal-oral route: Salmonella bacteria can be spread from person to person through the fecal-oral route. This means that the bacteria can be passed from one person to another when someone who is infected with Salmonella does not wash their hands properly after using the bathroom. The bacteria can then be spread to objects or surfaces that others come into contact with, leading to further spread of the infection. This is particularly common in settings where there are large groups of people, such as schools or daycare centers.
