A warm and moist environment supports bacteria growth very well.

Answer:

The warm temperature will support the rapid multiplication of bacteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

Warm temperatures are comfortable for the bacteria to grow fastly. To exist and to reproduce them the bacteria need time and the right conditions like food, moisture, and warm temperature. Most of the bacteria grow fastly at temperatures above 40°F.

The standard temperature for bacterial growth is between 40 and 140°F that may be called a danger zone.

Some bacteria can grow as twice as their growth for every 20 minutes at temperatures above 40°F. Within 2 hours, these bacteria can grow very fast so that they may cause an illness or form toxins that cause illness.
