    a-Preventative

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Foods spoil because atmospheric oxygen reacts with the oils in them and causes the food to become rancid.

    BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) dissolves in the oils, and oxygen reacts with BHT much faster than with the oils.

    In this way, BHT maintains freshness and prevents the food from spoiling.
