Explanation:

In food safety (related to Medicine and Health, a subfield of Natural Science), when displaying food in ice, the food must be at a temperature that prevents bacterial growth and ensures safety. The correct temperature requirement is that the food should be \(41^\circ\text{F}\) (\(5^\circ\text{C}\)) or colder. Option a has an incorrect temperature, and option c (sitting on top of ice) does not ensure proper cooling as the food needs to be in contact with the ice to maintain the safe temperature.

Answer:

b) Be \(41^\circ\) F (\(5^\circ\)C) or colder
