False
B
True
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Sanitized utensils must not be dried using a dish towel as it increases the risk of cross-contamination and encourages the growth of bacteria. The best way to dry cleaned and sanitized dishes is to air dry them in a dedicated and previously sanitized drying rack.

Detailed explanation-2: -There’s a big difference between cleaning and sanitizing. Cleaning removes food and other types of soil from a surface such as a countertop or plate. Sanitizing reduces the number of pathogens on the clean surface to safe levels.

Detailed explanation-3: -"Allow dishes to sit in the solution for 30 seconds, then wash and rinse thoroughly as you normally would.” Give your dishes even more time to soak before washing, if you’d like.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pour your sanitizing solution on the cutting boards and let it stand for several minutes or use it as a soak for your utensils. Next, rinse them and air or pat them dry with clean paper towels. With these two steps, clean THEN sanitize, you can knock out any foodborne illness-causing bacteria in your kitchen!
