Decay is caused by insects and microscopic organisms breaking organic matter down as a part of their feeding process. When it is too cold for these things to function, then they can't cause decay.
It slows the reaction rate down, slowing the decay, and slowing the dispersion from infection sites through the foodstuff.
"Decay" refers to the natural process of breakdown and decomposition. To prevent decay, items can be stored properly, sealed in airtight containers, kept dry, or refrigerated. Certain preservation methods like canning, freezing, pickling, or drying can also help delay decay of food items.
You can add antifreeze to water to prevent it from freezing.
It will slow down an organism's decay in freezing temperatures.
I think a refrigerator, slows down the process of food rotting as the microorganisms take more time to cause chemical reactions in cold weather.
Brush your teeth!
Fast freezing. Fish starts to decay from the moment it's caught. Fast freezing preserves the freshness, and dramatically delays the decay process so the consumer can eat it.
You can prevent water from freezing by adding substances like salt or antifreeze to lower the freezing point, insulating the water container, or keeping it in a heated area above freezing temperature.
Salt lowers the freezing point temperature, it does not completely prevent freezing. Otherwise we would not have sea ice.
Bugs can be effectively preserved by carefully collecting and handling them, using proper preservation techniques such as drying, freezing, or using chemicals, and storing them in a cool, dry place to prevent decay.
Flouride
Yes, running the pool pump can help prevent freezing by circulating water and preventing it from becoming stagnant, which can lead to freezing in cold temperatures.
