Answer 1

Answer:b. it is a good practice to keep a separate cutting board just for raw meats.

Explanation:

Cross contamination can occur when the food raw material is not handled in a clean way or contaminated utensils or equipments are used for the purpose of cooking.

A separate cutting board should be kept for cutting the raw meat. This will prevent the entry of microbes into the processed food or any other material like vegetables to remain free from contamination.
