Explanation:

Question 3

In food safety (related to Natural Science, specifically in areas like Biology or Food Science), eggs, whether washed (which removes the natural protective layer) or unwashed, need refrigeration to prevent bacterial growth (like Salmonella) and spoilage. So the statement is True.

The outer lining of a fresh egg is called the cuticle (also referred to as bloom or cuticula in some contexts, so "all of the above" is correct as these terms are synonymous for the egg's outer protective layer).

Washing eggs strips the cuticle (the outer protective layer) from the egg. Option a describes what the cuticle does, option b is incorrect as washing reduces shelf - life at room temp, and option d is related to egg freshness (sinking in water) not washing. So washing strips the cuticle.

Answer:

True
