Spoilage is basically a chemical reaction and chemical reactions take place more slowly if the environment is cooler. Moreover, the microbes are also not very active at lower temperatures and are unable to spoil the food.

Temperature control is the most efficient means of controlling microbial growth. At four degree Celsius, contaminating microbes growth will be hindered as they can not survive at this temperature.

What happens to the epidermis <br>when exposed to very high temperature ​
ki77a [65]

Answer: These contractions need energy from respiration , and some of this is released as heat. Blood vessels, which lead to the skin capillaries, become narrower - they constrict – which allows less blood to flow through the skin and conserve the core body temperature. This is called vasoconstriction.

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

C. the sympathetic division of the autonomic system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system is one of the divisions of the autonomic nervous system that controls involuntary body functions in the body. The sympathetic nervous system is said to stimulate the fight-or-flight response of the body when the body senses threat, or is exposed to a stressor. These  fight-or-flight responses are generated in the body in form of physiological changes in order to put the body at top alert to focus on dealing with the stressor.

Physiological changes that are stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system as fight-or-flight responses include dilated pupils, inhibited digestive activity, increased respiratory rate, and release of glucose from the liver, which are all stated in the question. It is the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system that controls all these activities.
