The correct method for disposing of potentially pathogenic bacteria is: **They should be placed into a biohazard bag to be incinerated**.
This method ensures that the potentially harmful microorganisms are properly contained and destroyed, reducing the risk of contamination and exposure to individuals and the environment. It is important to follow established biosafety protocols for the disposal of hazardous biological materials.
