The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Select the correct match," we need to analyze each option provided and determine if the organism and the product listed are correctly matched. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option A: Aspergillus niger - Acetic Acid** - Aspergillus niger is a fungus known for its role in the production of citric acid, not acetic acid. Acetic acid is primarily produced by the bacterium Acetobacter. - **Conclusion:** This is an incorrect match. 2. **Analyze Option B: Streptokinase - Clot Buster** - Streptokinase is indeed produced by the bacterium Streptococcus. It is used as a clot buster in medical treatments, especially for myocardial infarction. - **Conclusion:** This is a correct match. 3. **Analyze Option C: Cyclosporine A - Clot Buster** - Cyclosporine A is not a clot buster; it is an immunosuppressive agent used to prevent organ rejection in transplant patients. It is produced by the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum (previously known as Trichoderma polysporum). - **Conclusion:** This is an incorrect match. 4. **Analyze Option D: Statins - Cholesterol Lowering Agent** - Statins are indeed used as cholesterol-lowering agents and are produced by the yeast Monascus purpureus. They work by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for cholesterol synthesis. - **Conclusion:** This is a correct match. ### Final Answer: The correct match among the options is **Option D: Statins - Cholesterol Lowering Agent.** ---
