Explanation:

Question 36

Food poisoning symptoms' onset varies by cause (e.g., staphylococcal toxin - 1 - 6 hours, salmonella - 6 - 72 hours). The “1 to 2 hours” is too narrow for general “usually” as many causes have different timelines. So the statement is False.

A damp oven mitt on a hot pan: water in the mitt turns to steam. Steam has high heat energy and can cause severe burns (more than hot water due to latent heat of vaporization). So the statement is True.

Kitchens have heat, sharp objects, electrical appliances, and slippery surfaces. Statistics show kitchens have more household accidents (burns, cuts, falls) than other rooms. So the statement is True.

Answer:

False
