Correct Answer: the boiling point of the water inside is elevated


Solution : The correct option is the boiling point of the water inside is elevated.

The pressure cooker's sealed atmosphere creates internal pressure, which raises the boiling point of water. Because of the greater boiling point, food can be cooked at a higher temperature than in an open pot, resulting in speedier cooking.
