Solution

The correct option is A Pasteurization
Pasteurization is the process of heating the milk to a temperature of about 70-71 ºC for 15-30 seconds and then suddenly cooled to a temperature of about 4ºC. By doing so, the growth of microbes can be prevented and the milk becomes safe for consumption.
