Question

question 8
the growth of microorganisms is significantly affected by environmental conditions, including:
a viruses
b water availability
c ph level
d sodium
e temperature
f bacteria
g air quality
4.55 points

Explanation:

Environmental conditions that affect microorganism growth include water availability (affects osmotic balance), pH level (enzymatic activity is pH - dependent), temperature (affects metabolic rates), and air quality (availability of oxygen or other gases). Sodium can also be a factor in some cases. Viruses and bacteria are not environmental conditions but types of microorganisms.

Answer:

B. Water availability, C. pH level, D. Sodium, E. Temperature, G. Air quality
