Question

Cooking food safely can mean:

Reaching a minimum internal temperature as
measured by a food thermometer
Handling raw meat without washing your hands
Leaving food at room temperature for long periods of
time
Knowing it's finished by looking at it.

Answer 1

A.) Reaching a minimum internal temperature as measured by a food thermometer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Handling raw meat without washing your hands could put you at risk of diseases like salmonella.

Leaving food at room temperature, not done safely, could bring mold or other harmful bacteria.

Just looking at food and "knowing" it's finished is not safe.
