Answer:

Some of the primary culprits are air, moisture, light, temperature, and microbial growth. Most fruits and vegetables spoil easily because of damage caused by microorganisms. Microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast and molds need water and nutrients for growth, energy and reproduction. With an average water content of 90 percent or more, fruits and veggies grow on the outside of food or within the holes or cracks and spoil quickly.

When fruits and vegetables exposed to light, their outer layers start to spoil in a process known as photodegradation that causes discoloration, loss of flavor, vitamins, and proteins.
