Which of the following is an invisible biological hazard in food?

A.

Molds

B.

Fly

C.

Correct option is A


The correct answer is (a) Molds.
· Molds are fungi that can grow on food and produce invisible spores and mycotoxins that can be hazardous to human health.
· While the mold itself can sometimes be visible, the spores and toxins it produces are often invisible to the naked eye.
· These mycotoxins can cause a range of health problems, from allergic reactions to more serious illnesses if ingested in significant amounts.
Information Booster:
Fly:
· Flies are visible insects that can contaminate food by carrying pathogens from waste to food surfaces. They are not considered an invisible hazard.
Weevils:
· Weevils are visible pests, often found in stored grains and cereals. They are not invisible and can be detected by inspection.
Worms:
· Worms, such as those found in fruits or meat, are visible to the naked eye and can be identified through visual inspection. They do not represent an invisible hazard.
