Explanation:

Using different cutting boards for raw beef (raw meat) and melons (ready - to - eat food) prevents the transfer of harmful microorganisms from raw meat to ready - to - eat food, which is the definition of preventing cross - contamination. Practicing personal hygiene is about individual cleanliness, controlling time and temperature is about food safety related to spoilage, and cleaning/sanitizing is about cleaning surfaces, not separating food types.

Answer:

B. preventing cross - contamination.
