Answer 1

According to FDA food safety guidelines, the acceptable temperature for storing most perishables in the refrigerator, especially meats ,should be kept at below 40°F (or approximately 4°C). Hence option B (Between 1°C and 10°C) is likely the best choice since the other options do not fall within these temperature ranges. However note the chosen range caters for stagnant or open times as best is the lower limit < 4°C.
