Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -To prevent rapid growth of bacteria, perishable meat and poultry should be kept cold at 40 degrees F for below or frozen at 0 F during transport from a meat-packing plant to a refrigerated warehouse or retail store. The lower temperature prevents growth of microorganisms that cause food-borne illnesses.
