Question

1. foods should not sit out at room temperature for more than 2 hours because bacteria will grow at a fast rate. * 1 point

○ true
○ false

1. brown sugar should be packed into a measuring cup to be most effectively measured. * 1 point

○ true
○ false

Explanation:

Question 16

In food safety (related to Medicine and Health or Biology in Natural Science), the "danger zone" for food is 40°F - 140°F (room temp is often in this range). Bacteria multiply rapidly here, and leaving food out >2 hours (or 1 hour if temp >90°F) is unsafe. So the statement is True.

Brown sugar is moist and has a tendency to clump. To get an accurate measurement, it's standard practice to pack it into the measuring cup (so it fills the cup without air pockets), unlike granulated sugar which is leveled. So the statement is True.

Answer:

True
