Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
Cryopreservation is not suitable for preserving Aerobic organisms.
It is a process where organisms, organelles, cells, tissues, extracellular matrix, organs, or any other biological constructs susceptible to damage caused by unregulated chemical kinetics are preserved by cooling to very low temperatures using liquid nitrogen.
Cryopreservation methods seek to reach low temperatures without causing additional damage caused by the formation of ice crystals during freezing.
