      harvest wounds, they should be stored for 10 days at:
      A 25°C and 85% RH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 40°C and 70% RH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 80°C and 30% RH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 30°C and 80% RH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Curing promotes the formation of a corky periderm layer that seals skin breaks. This process significantly reduces moisture loss and protects the tuber from fungal infections during long-term storage.
