Answer 1

c because both are raw

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. Chop raw onion, then raw meat, and put both into a skillet.

Explanation

Using the same gloves for different activities is okay or appropriate if the use of this does not imply a health risk due to cross-contamination that involves transferring pathogens from one surface or object to another. For example, if one uses the same gloves to chop raw meat and then touches bread, cross-contamination occurs as bacteria from meat are transferred to bread.

This implies you can use the same gloves to touch elements of the same kind or in some cases to touch all elements that will be cooked as this eliminates pathogens. According to the above, the correct answer is C. because onions and raw meat are both foods, also, both are going to be cooked, which eliminates bacteria in any of the two ingredients.
