Lactic Acid Bacteria grow in
A
Milk
B
Curd
C
Water
D
Juice
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are one of the most significant groups of probiotic organisms, commonly used in fermented dairy products. Among other benefits, these microorganisms can enhance lactose digestion, stimulate the immune system, and prevent and treat diarrhea [5].

Detailed explanation-2: -Based on the current study, the majority (24.38%) of the LAB isolated from the different milk and milk products was containing Lactobacillus, Lactococcus (21.94%), Streptococcus (19.51%), Leuconostoc (14.64%), Bifidobacteria (12.19%), and Pediococcus (7.31%) spp.

Detailed explanation-3: -Microorganisms such as Lactobacillus and others commonly called Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) grow it milk and convert into curd. During growth, the LAB produces acids that coagulate and partially digest the milk proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are ubiquitous microorganisms, which can be found in plants, intestinal mucosa of mammals, and fermented foods as well.

Detailed explanation-5: -Lactic acid bacteria are a group of ‘friendly’ bacteria that are good at consuming the sugar in milk (lactose) and converting it into lactic acid and other components. Lactic acid bacteria change both the flavour and texture of the milk and thereby turn it into a completely different product.
