Answer to Question 2

Cooking meat such as chicken at 170 oF will kill all of the harmful bacteria by permanently denaturing their proteins. The bacteria will not be able to grow as a result. If the chicken is promptly refrigerated after cooking it, few harmful bacteria will be able to grow on the meat.
