frozen meat and poultry are best thawed:
possible answers:
a) in a sink with warm running water
b) at room temperature for 8 hours
c) in a refrigerator at 4°c (40°f)
d) all of the above

Explanation:

Thawing frozen meat/poultry in the refrigerator maintains a safe low temperature, preventing bacterial growth. Warm water (A) and room temperature (B) can allow bacteria to multiply rapidly, making them unsafe methods. Thus, only option C is correct.
