Which of these is a virulence factor of staphylococcus that allows it to cause food intoxication?

Staphylococcus aureus is almost a household name because it is so common and it has plenty of ways to cause infection in humans. The ‘staph’ is the primary cause of boils, folliculitis, impetigo, cellulitis, organ infection and sepsis, bone infections, bacteremia, and biofilms. When ingested and it reaches the intestine, the ‘staph’ has another nasty trick on its sleeve by producing enteroxins A and B, which cause food poisoning. Staphylococcus aureus can get into food when an ill person cough, sneezes, or spits into food. It takes one to six hours for the bacteria to produce toxins, which can make you sick for several minutes to three days.

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
