Explanation:
Fruits stored in a cold chamber exhibit longer storage life because the low temperature decreases their rate of respiration. This reduced respiration slows down metabolic activities, resulting in slower ripening and deterioration processes. As a result, the fruits maintain their quality and freshness for a longer period.
