Solution

The correct answer is A. The drying process helps to preserve the meat. This is because the process of making beef jerky involves removing moisture from the meat. Bacteria, which are the primary cause of food spoilage, need moisture to grow and multiply. Therefore, by drying the meat, the growth of bacteria is inhibited, which helps to preserve the meat and allows it to be stored without refrigeration.
