Why do foods with high water activity spoil faster?
TutorSources & Tools4

Because microorganisms can access the available water and grow in it. Lower the water activity, with sugar or salt or drying, and that growth slows right down. It is covered in the Water in Foods topic.

Introduction to Food Science takes the core of your intro course and turns it into interactive flashcards, quizzes, and spaced repetition, so the material actually sticks instead of slipping away before the exam. It is built for food science, nutrition, and dietetics students, and it covers what intro courses actually test: food structure, the major food molecules (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and water), nutrition and digestion, and the chemistry behind it all. Study a few minutes a day and walk into your test confident you have seen it all before.
