Passage:
When transporting climacteric fruits such as avocados across oceanic shipping routes, refrigerated cargo containers maintain precise internal holding temperatures to retard spoilage. In addition to chilling the air, these specialized containers continuously operate catalytic scrubbers to extract ethylene gas emitted by the produce. While low temperatures slow cellular metabolism, ethylene serves as a biological trigger that induces adjacent unripened fruit to rapidly mature. If ethylene gas accumulates in the cargo hold, a shipment will spoil before reaching port despite continuous and flawless refrigeration.

Statement: Regulating cargo temperature without removing ethylene gas is insufficient to prevent the premature spoilage of climacteric fruit during transport.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True
The correct answer is True because the passage establishes that low temperatures only slow metabolism, whereas ethylene independently triggers rapid maturation. The text states that a shipment will spoil if ethylene accumulates even with flawless refrigeration, confirming the implication that temperature regulation by itself cannot prevent spoilage.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the passage context and stated conditions
The text notes that refrigeration slows cellular metabolism, but produce still releases ethylene gas, which triggers rapid ripening in neighboring fruit.
Identifying the relationship between the environmental controls (temperature) and biological factors (ethylene gas) is necessary to determine the overall condition for preservation.
2
Examine the unstated implication of running refrigeration without ethylene scrubbers
The text explicitly mentions that if ethylene accumulates, the shipment will spoil prematurely despite continuous and flawless refrigeration.
This establishes the implied principle that temperature regulation alone is not enough to protect the cargo.
3
Evaluate the truth value of the target statement
The statement asserts that regulating temperature without removing ethylene is insufficient to prevent spoilage, which matches the passage's necessary implication.
Connecting the passage implication directly to the evaluated claim confirms that the statement is true.
