Answer and Explanation:

Charlotte is most likely looking for Trichinella larvae under the microscope. Trichinellosis is a disease caused by eating raw or undercooked meat, particularly pork, that contains the larvae of the Trichinella worm. The larvae can be found in the muscle tissue of infected animals. In severe cases, trichinellosis can be fatal. To prevent the spread of trichinellosis, all pork must be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
