Match the following columns and select the correct option.
| Column I | Column II |
|---|---|
| (a) Clostridium butylicum | (i) Cyclosporin-A |
| (b) Trichoderma polysporum | (ii) Butyric Acid |
| (c) Monascus purpureus | (iii) Citric Acid |
| (d) Aspergillus niger | (iv) Blood cholesterol lowering agent |
To solve this problem, we need to match the microorganisms in Column I with their corresponding products or uses in Column II. Let's analyze each microorganism:a. Clostridium butylicum: This bacterium is known for producing butyric acid. - This matches with (ii) Butyric Acid.b. Trichoderma polysporum: This fungus is known for producing Cyclosporin-A, an immunosuppressive drug. - This matches with (i) Cyclosporin-A.c. Monascus purpureus: This fungus is used to produce statins, which are blood cholesterol-lowering agents. - This matches with (iv) Blood cholesterol lowering agent.d. Aspergillus niger: This fungus is commonly used in the industrial production of citric acid. - This matches with (iii) Citric Acid.Now, let's match the items from Column I with Column II:This corresponds to Option 1.
