Answer keep an apple in the freezer

Explanation: low the temperature will be the less will be the chances for the apple to rot.This is because low temperature prevents the growth And reproduction of microorganisms. Freezer also helps by slowing down the food's own natural processes that lead to ripening and eventual decay.
