Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

One of the alternate sources of proteins for animal and human nutrition is Single Cell Protein (SCP) to meet the demand of food at the rate at which human and animal population is increasing. SCPs are protein rich microbes like Spirulina. They have high protein content, low cost of production and undesired nutrition can be eliminated through processing.
