The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **First Blank:** - The first blank states that something is used in detergent formulations and helps in removing oily stains from laundry. The correct term here is **lipases**. Lipases are enzymes that break down lipids (oils and fats), making them effective in removing oily stains from clothes. 2. **Second Blank:** - The second blank refers to a type of cheese that is ripened by growing a specific fungus. The correct answer is **Roquefort cheese**, which is ripened using the fungus **Penicillium roqueforti**. 3. **Third Blank:** - The third blank discusses the production of alcoholic beverages. The first part of the statement mentions something produced without distillation, which refers to **wine and beer**. The second part mentions something produced by distillation, which includes **whiskey, brandy, vodka, and rum**. Thus, the correct terms for the blanks are **wine and beer** for the first part and **whiskey and brandy** for the second part. 4. **Fourth Blank:** - The fourth blank asks for an antibiotic used to treat American soldiers wounded in World War II. The correct answer is **penicillin**, which was discovered by Alexander Fleming and widely used during the war. 5. **Fifth Blank:** - The last blank refers to a disease also known as Kusht rog.
