    • Microwave it

    Correct Answer
    A. In the fridge
    Explanation

This helps to maintain the quality and safety of the food by preventing the growth of bacteria. The cold temperature of the fridge ensures that the food stays at a safe temperature throughout the defrosting process. On the other hand, defrosting food in the microwave or leaving it out of the freezer can lead to uneven thawing and increase the risk of bacterial growth.

    A. 0 to 8
    Explanation
    Fridges should operate within the temperature range of 0 to 8 degrees Celsius. This range is necessary to ensure that food is kept at a safe temperature to prevent bacterial growth and maintain its freshness. Temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius can cause freezing and damage to certain food items, while temperatures above 8 degrees Celsius can lead to spoilage and bacterial contamination. Therefore, maintaining the temperature within this range is crucial for the proper functioning of a fridge.

    The correct answer is -18 to -24. This temperature range is recommended for freezers because it ensures that food is kept at a safe temperature to prevent bacterial growth and maintain food quality. Temperatures below -18 degrees Celsius help to preserve the freshness and nutritional value of frozen food, while temperatures above -24 degrees Celsius may result in freezer burn and degradation of food quality. Therefore, the range of -18 to -24 degrees Celsius is considered ideal for freezer operation.
