- What statement correctly explains why moist-heat is more effective than dry-heat for sterilization purposes? The microbe's molecules are resistant to alteration in the absence of water. Dry heat will always be a lower temperature than moist heat. Dry heat dehydrates the microbes, and dehydration is a method of preserving microbes. Water is a good conductor of heat.arrow_forwardPlease help me identify one way that humans utilize microbes and their products in each of the following categories: Industrial, Medical, Food.
