Fish spoils faster than beef mainly because

  • A.it carries no microorganisms when caught
  • B.its flesh suits the flora that arrives with it
  • C.it contains no protein for bacteria to use
  • D.it is always stored at much higher temperatures

Answer: B

Fish tissue is soft, low in connective tissue and rich in the small nitrogen compounds bacteria use readily, and the flora that comes with it is adapted to growing in the cold. Both facts push in the same direction, so refrigeration slows the process without arresting it.
