Question

Match the following defects in cream with causative microorganism:
1. Fruity flavour
2. Musty flavour
3. Yeasty flavour
4. Ropy cream
Match with the following microorganisms:
A. Geotrichum candidum
B. Pseudomonas fragi
C. Alcaligenes viscolactis
D. Torulopsis sphaerica
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. 1 - A, 2 - B, 3 - C, 4 - D
• B. 1 - C, 2 - D, 3 - A, 4 - B
• C. 1 - B, 2 - A, 3 - D, 4 - C
• D. 1 - D, 2 - C, 3 - B, 4 - A

Hint:

Pseudomonas fragi: fruity flavour.
Geotrichum candidum: musty flavour.
Torulopsis sphaerica: yeasty flavour.
Alcaligenes viscolactis: ropy cream.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Different microorganisms cause specific defects in cream.
Each defect is associated with a particular organism.
Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
No specific formula.
Need to know the microorganisms causing cream defects.
Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
Fruity flavour is caused by Pseudomonas fragi (1-B).
Musty flavour is caused by Geotrichum candidum (2-A).
Yeasty flavour is caused by Torulopsis sphaerica (3-D).
Ropy cream is caused by Alcaligenes viscolactis (4-C).
Thus, the correct matching is 1-B, 2-A, 3-D, 4-C.
Step 4: Final Answer:
The correct matching is 1-B, 2-A, 3-D, 4-C.
Hence, the correct option is (C). \bigskip
