B.
0.25%
C.
0.20%
D.
0.10%
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
The lactic acid content in fresh milk is 0.10%.
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.
