Explanation:

depends, as not every heat can kill germs. A temperature of 165 F – 250 F will kill most germs yet some viruses can’t be killed by the most extreme heat. This is because they don’t have a regular structure that can be destroyed by heat. The exact temperatures that kill germs, however, depend on the microbe and how long it stays in the heat. For example, salmonella is killed when it is heated to 131 F for one hour, 140 F for half an hour, or 167 F for 10 minutes. Cooking meats to ensure they are germs free also demands some caution. You don’t want germs and you don’t want to overcook your food either. Therefore, you need to know the safe internal temperature required for the type of meat you are cooking.
