Solution

The correct option is D Methanogens
Microbes produce different types of gaseous end-product during growth and metabolism. Certain bacteria which grow anaerobically on cellulosic material, produce large amounts of methane along with carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas. These bacterias are collectively called methanogens. Methanogens are used in biogas production. Hence, Option D is correct.
