The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Explanation:
For the manufacturing process of standard pasteurized milk, lactose is added to whole milk and sugar to control crystallization of sugar present. All milk, raw or pasteurized, contains lactose and can cause lactose intolerance in sensitive individuals. Pasteurization is a process involving heating of milk followed with rapid cooling to 100C or less. Heating destroyed all disease causing microorganisms making milk safe for consumption. Hence, the correct option is (A).
