How does putting vegetables in the refrigerator slow their wilting?

How does boiling preserve food?
Boiling preserves food by killing harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause spoilage or illness. The high temperature of boiling water destroys these pathogens and enzymes that could cause the food to deteriorate. Additionally, boiling can remove excess moisture from food, preventing the growth of bacteria and the subsequent spoilage.
How does salt prevent food spoilage?
Most bacteria, which cause food spoilage, cannot tolerate the high salinity. The salt draws out moisture, causing them to die.

Example of scope and limitation in food spoilage?
Food spoilage is the deterioration in the color, flavor, odor, or consistency of a food product. Food can deteriorate as a result of 2 things: the growth of microorganisms, and/or the action of enzymes
Why can acids act as a preserving agent?
Most pathogenic, many spoilage organisms and many enzymes associated with spoilage do not like to operate in acid conditions. That's why acids like vinegar are used to preserve food.
How food spoilage happens?
== == Three types of micro organisms affect food: bacteria, moulds and yeasts. By a natural chain of events, these micro organisms will cause food to change - often, but not always, making food "bad" or unpalatable
Which group of bacteria is expected to cause spoilage to the food in fridge storage?
psychrophiles and psychrotrophs
Factors that affect food spoilage?

What is cause of spoilage rice?
the cause of rice spoilage is leaving it unattended after a period of time
