There is an outbreak of botulism in Country X. Researchers investigated and found that many people are eating canned food without heating it because they do not have microwaves (I don't even know).

What is botulism?

Make a hypothesis.

How can people prevent themselves from getting botulism?

1. Botulism is a rare foodborne illness caused by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum 2. Eating food that hasn't been heated correctly, increases your risk of contracting foodborne illnesses. 3. People can prevent themselves from getting botulism by heating food correctly.

Gram staining separates bacteria into two groups: gram-positive and gram-negative. Gram-positive bacteria appear violet while gram-negative bacteria cannot retain the violet color.
