few ways 1 - Freeze food, this slows reactions taking place, it will not completely stop the decaying process, also know as freezer burn. 2 - Heat food - this causes enzymes to become denatured and stop them decaying food 3 - vacuum pack - this deprives decomposers of oxygen so that they cant live 4 - tinning food - keeps food dry, heated and airtight so no oxgen
A radioactive isotope will stop decaying when there are no more atoms of the isotope left.
it's simple! all you have to do is either put it in an airtight container ( if its dry food) or put it in the fridge (if its fruit etc.)
A byproduct of microbiotic or enzymatic spoilage can be a variety of gases. That's why containers of spoiled food will swell.
Put them in water with some lemon juice
When freezing food, we mainly think about keeping the food very cold so that bacteria and fungus does not eat away on the food. Most bacteria almost stop multiplying already at -5 degrees Celsius. What most people does not think about is the air around us. It brings another aspect to food keeping. Oxidation. The components of the frozen food actually react with the air (mainly oxygen). The colder the food is kept, the slower this reaction works. Most today's freezers keep food at -18 Degrees Celsius (approx 0 F). When using airtight containers or wrappings around the food, then this is very good for even long term keeping of food. (1 year should be no problem in most cases). Most food does not keep noticeably better at lower temperatures. The most important is to use airtight containers and bags so that your food does not react with oxygen present. A trick worth gold on fish is to freeze it solid, then spray it gently with water all over so that it get "glazed" with a layer of ice all over. Put back into freezer in a plastic bag or whatever useful. It will keep a lot better that way.
In packagin crisps to stop oxygen decaying them, and in light bulbs to stop the oxygen eroding the tungsten filament faster.

You can replace styrofoam with something more recyclable like paper containers
No, it is not correct; only a nuclear chain reaction can be stopped with control rods.
don't die and you won't decay. if that falls you can drain them of oxygen and keep them in a cool dry place. your decision
