Answer:

Answer Below

Step-by-step explanation:

When you leave an apple on a table outside it will turn brown. This happens because when you cut an apple, you are exposing it's insides to the oxygen in the air. This causes the PPO (polyphenol oxidase) enzyme in the apple's flesh to oxidize the polyphenols, turning them into some other brown colored products. Hence, the color change.
