Due to lower atmospheric pressure at high altitudes, water boils at 92°C instead of 100°C. How will this difference affect cooking times? How will it affect the time needed to boil spaghetti noodles as compared to the amount of time needed at sea level?

At high altitudes, water boils at 92°C, which is cooler than the 100°C water at sea level. Since the noodles cook in water at a lower temperature, they take longer to cook. Therefore, boiling spaghetti will take longer than it does at sea level; choice A, “It will be longer,” is correct.
