Answer: The correct answer is: C) The fish has an ammonia-like smell. Explanation: Why this answer is correct: C) The fish has an ammonia-like smell. If we receive fish that has an ammonia-like smell, it is an indication that the fish is undergoing the decomposition process and the delivery should be rejected. Why the other answers are incorrect: A) The fish has a mild fishy odor. It is normal for fish to have a mild fishy odor and is not a sign of spoilage. B) The fish is firm and moist. Firmness and moistness are not signs of spoilage. Rather, they indicate that the fish is fresh and safe to consume. D) The fish is cold to the touch. The proper way to store fish is in ice as it slows the decomposition process. Therefore, fish being cold to the touch indicates that they have been stored safely.
