Answer:

Low-temperature blackbody

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 types of blackbody temperatures.

Low-temperature blackbody

High temperature extended area blackbody

High-temperature cavity blackbody

A Low-temperature blackbody is a type of black body radiation that has the range of -40° C to 175° C, typically between 233 K and 448 K. A perfect fit for the temperature range mentioned in the question, "a few hundred Kelvin". Therefore, it's the kind of blackbody temperature that the object would emit.
