Solution

The correct option is C

A - Raw Mangoes, B - Cherries, C - Grapes


Food preservation is the method for the prevention of food spoilage, so that they can be safely stored until consumption. There are several methods for the preservation of food.
Grapes are preserved by drying so that the water content in them is removed, without which microorganisms cannot grow.
Cherries are preserved in sugar solution and raw mango in salt solution. The solutions draw the water content out from cherries and raw mangoes. The low water content will prevent the microbial growth and thereby both the cherries and raw mangoes are preserved.
