Explanation / Answer

Answer: Option E is correct.

Explanation: Food poisoning can occur due to

i. Improper handling of food

ii. Partial/undercooking

iii. Uncleaned utensils

The use of human or other animal waste for agricultural fields may result in contamination if proper care is not taken. Otherwise, it is not a direct/strict concern.

Genetic manipulation of a plant or animal to provide resistance/any other desirable trait does not cause food poisoning.
