Fresh vegetables with high water content do not freeze well. Explain. a) water expands whenit freezes and damagesthecell wall.
b) water contracts when it freezes and damagesthe cell wall.
c) water expands whenit freezes and does not damagethecell wall.
d) water contracts when it freezes and does not damagethecell wall.
e) water does not change in size whenit freezes.

a) water expands when it freezes and damages the cell wall.

Explanation:

We know that most liquids expand when heated and contract when cooled. Water does not behave in the same way.

Water contracts on cooling from any temperature until 4°C when it begins to expand until 0°C. Hence a given mass of water has its least volume and highest density at 4°C.

Hence, fresh vegetables with high water content do not freeze well because water expands when it freezes and damages the cell wall.
