Question

Fermentation processes include the formation of curd by bacteria.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Fermentation is a process by which carbohydrates are changed into alcohols and carbon dioxide by bacteria or yeast under anaerobic conditions.

Fermentation also involves the conversion of milk sugar (lactose) by Lactobacillus to produce lactic acid. These bacteria denature milk protein (casein) so that they clump together to form curd.
