The color of the skin of an apple is not a clue as to its keeping quality. Keeping quality seems to be dependent upon when they mature. How soon an apple will rot will depend on its variety, when it was harvested and how it has been handled and stored. Although all apples do best refrigerated, some varieties require it more than others.

What else can I help you with?
The old saying one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel is due to chemical signaling in plants via?
ethylene gas. When one apple starts to rot, it releases ethylene gas which accelerates the ripening process in other apples nearby, causing them to rot as well. This chemical signaling mechanism allows for coordination of fruit ripening in plants.
Which fruit decay faster?
Soft fruits like strawberries, peaches, and raspberries tend to decay faster than harder fruits like apples, oranges, and lemons due to their higher water content and softer texture. Additionally, fruits with thinner skins or peels are more prone to decay faster compared to fruits with thicker protective outer layers.
What is the difference between Brown rot and White rot fungi Give examples as well?
Macroscopically the white rot will appear as white spots on the wood, indicating that it has eaten up all the lignin and left the white cellulose behind. It does eat away the cellulose and hemicellulose too, but the lignin is delicious to them. It will appear fibrous, stringy, and spongy with the white pockets present. Brown rot is the opposite and it eats the cellulose first and doesn't do much to the lignin. it is brown in colour, and the fibrous texture is lost quickly. There is a much greater diversity of white rot, but brown rot can reduce the weight of a tree much faster than white rot. Microscopically, the fungi's hyphae secretes enzymes which attack the S2 and S3 layers of the wood and move into the tracheids. It will destroy all layers from the lumen out to the middle lamella. for Brown rot, there is extensive degradation of cellulose...the S2 layers degrade fast, but the S3 layer is more resistant. The fungi (examples to come) eat all the carbs (cellulose& hemicellulose). examples of brown rot include Gelophyllum sepiarium and Oligoporus placenus. examples of white rot include Trametes versicolor and Phellinus pini
Do pine cones rot?
Yes, pine cones can rot over time, especially when exposed to moisture and environmental factors that promote decay like fungus and bacteria. The decomposition process of pine cones involves breaking down of the materials they are composed of, such as cellulose and lignin, by microorganisms.
What is the difference between white rot and brown rot?
White rot fungi are able to break down lignin along with cellulose and hemicellulose in wood, resulting in white-colored decay. Brown rot fungi primarily degrade cellulose and hemicellulose in wood, while leaving behind lignin, resulting in a brown-colored decay. White rot fungi are more effective at decomposing lignin compared to brown rot fungi.
What would rot faster banana or apple?
Under the same conditions, a strawberry will rot much faster than an apple.
Does an apple rot faster than a banana?

Will an apple rot faster than a grape?

Will a tomato rot faster in warm water or cold water?
The tomato would rot faster in warm water because, when you put a tomato in cold temperature ex: refrigerator the tomato does not rot and it stays good for a long period of time, now if you put the tomato in warm temperature or room temperature for instance, the tomato has more chance of rotting than in cold temperature so the tomato rots faster in warm water.
Does tomato juice make an apple rot?
yes!
What will happen to an apple covered with vinegar?

Does a green apple rot faster than a red apple?
I actually did an expirament on this topic. Red apples rot faster then green apples. This is due to the acidity in the green apple that keeps the green apple fresher. If you cut a green apple and a red apple in half, you will find that the red apple will start to brown slightly before the green apple.
