  • A. The boiling point of water is lower at higher altitudes.
  • B. Meat from mountainous animals is stronger than animals on the ground level
  • C. Pathogens and pollutants in urban cities located on ground levels make already cause the meat to rot a bit before we begin to cook it
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

Because water boils at a lower temperature at higher elevations, foods that are prepared by boiling or simmering will cook at a lower temperature, and it will take longer to cook. High altitude areas are also prone to low humidity, which can cause the moisture in foods to evaporate more quickly during cooking
