Solution

The correct option is C Lactobacillus
The answer is A.
  • Lactobacillus bacteria are used in the dairy industry as these help in fermentation mainly by producing lactic acid and decreasing the pH of milk which causes curdling of milk.
  • Bacillus thuringiensis is mainly used as a biopesticide in agriculture.
  • E.coli is found in gut microflora.
