When food leftovers are stored in a refrigerator, how does this help prevent food borne illnesses? Group of answer choices Low temperatures deactivate any toxins that might be produced by microbes. Low temperatures inhibit the metabolism and growth of microbes. Low temperatures disrupt microbe membranes and kill any microbes that are present. Low temperatures prevent microbes from forming biofilms.
