Solution

The correct option is B

Fermentation


The chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, in anaerobic conditions is called as fermentation. It is through the process of fermentation that commercial products like yogurt and cheese are processed. For example, Blue cheese is produced by Penicillium roqueforti and Penicillium glaucum molds.

Distillation is a process of separating the components from a liquid mixture, by selective evaporation and condensation. This distillation process is generally employed for the production of beverages in brewery industries.

Pasteurisation is a process of sterilization through heat treatment or irradiation of products like milk, curd, wine etc. before consumption.
