Explanation / Answer

1. Fermentation is a process that happens in absense of oxygen. Microorganisms act on sugar/carbohydrates to convert it into alcohols and acids. Hence, option C is correct.

2. Prebiotics and Probiotics support the good bacteria in the stomach. As Synbiotic is a combination of the two, it is also expected to have similar effect. Hence, no option is correct. A correct option would have been anti-biotic.

3. Adding external substance is termed as Inoculation. Hence, A is correct

4. Carbohydrates primarily supply energy by getting converted to glucose. Hence C is correct.
