  3. You must watch to make sure these two patients do not hide the cooked food in their pockets.
  4. You must watch to make sure these two patients sequence the recipe correctly.
Explanation
Answer: B. While completing the cooking task, you must watch to make sure these two patients add ingredients correctly and cook the food for the appropriate amount of time.
