The most abundant prokaryotes helpful to humans in making curd from milk and in production of antibiotics are the ones categorised as
Updated On: Jul 13, 2024
- Cyanobacteria
- Archaebacteria
- Chemosynthetic autotrophs
- Heterotrophic bacteria
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Maximum number of antibiotics are produced by mycelial bacteria known as actinomycetes and most of the actinomycets are saprotrophic (heterotrophic). Lactic acid bacteria that are used in preparation of curd are also heterotrophic ones.

Questions Asked in NEET exam
- Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector \(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10-6 C m, is ± 9 × 103 V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.
