Solution

The correct option is A Lactic Acid Bacteria

The major carbohydrate in milk is lactose. To make curd from milk, we need microorganisms that can carry out fermentation which in this case is the conversion of lactose into lactic acid. Therefore, the microorganisms that one would find in a fresh sample of curd are lactic acid bacteria; Lactobacillus.
