When bacteria are spread by contaminated implements, this is called?

Transmission
Infection
Contamination
Cross contamination

The correct answer is: Cross contamination

Cross contamination refers to the transfer of harmful bacteria or other pathogens from one surface or food to another, thereby facilitating their spread. Options A and B, transmission and infection, are both related to the spread of illness but do not specifically refer to the spread of bacteria by contaminated implements. Option C, contamination, is the overall presence of harmful substances or bacteria, but it does not specify the method of spread. Therefore, option D, cross contamination, is the most accurate answer in this scenario.
