Correct Answer:

Stop the mixer and lower the bowl

Explanation:

To scrape down a mixing bowl with a spatula, stopping the mixer and lowering the bowl is essential for safety and precision. Stopping the mixer prevents any risk of injury from the moving parts while allowing for a controlled and accurate scraping process. Lowering the bowl furthers facilitates easier access to the ingredients stuck to the sides or bottom, enabling comprehensive mixing. This approach ensures that all components are incorporated properly without the risk of splattering or overmixing, which could occur if the mixer were left running during this process.
