Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Oxygen is needed to support life and some metabolic processes in microorganisms especially aerobic organism.

The presence of oxygen in the container gives them the opportunity to carry out there metabolic activities thereby enhancing there growth and multiplication.

Hence, to limit the growth of aerobic bacteria or fungi, and also to prevent the evaporation of volatile components that is available in the content oxygen is withdrawn this help extend the shelf life of the produce to be stored.
