Solution
The correct option is C Spirulina
The dried cells of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts and algae that are grown in large scale culture systems as proteins for human or animal consumption are collectively known as single cell protein. Spirulina is considered as the best source. The composition of the biomass, including the high protein content, low content in nucleic acids, occurrence of high concentrations of vitamins and other growth factors and the presence of cell wall that is more easily digestible than that of other microbes indicate that Spirulina is a promising source of food or feed.So, the correct answer is option C.
