      A 5°C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10°C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 15°C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20°C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Potatoes stored below 10°C undergo cold-induced sweetening, where starch converts to sugars (glucose and fructose). This is undesirable for processing (e.g., frying), as sugars cause excessive browning. At 10°C, sugar accumulation is minimized while preventing spoilage.
