Vedclass · Answer

(C) The most appropriate reason for storing green apples at low temperatures is that it slows down the metabolic activities of the fruit. Specifically,the rate of respiration is significantly reduced at low temperatures. Since respiration is a catabolic process that consumes stored sugars (like galactose) to provide energy for ripening and senescence,reducing this rate helps the fruit remain fresh for a longer duration.
