  4. Carry the dish by hand to the guest.
Explanation
Answer: C - Cross-contact can be prevented by completely cooking food.

Cross-contact and cross-contamination are frequently confused. While cross-contamination can be prevented by fully cooking food, cross-contact cannot be corrected by cooking food. Once cross-contact has occurred, the only option is to discard the food.
