The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Products**: The question asks about the processes that lead to the production of cheese and yogurt. Both of these are dairy products. 2. **Understand the Process of Fermentation**: Cheese and yogurt are produced through a biological process known as fermentation. This process involves the conversion of sugars into acids, gases, or alcohol by microorganisms, primarily bacteria. 3. **Specific Microorganisms Involved**: - **Cheese Production**: The maturation of cheese is facilitated by specific molds, particularly *Penicillium camemberti*, which is responsible for the ripening of certain types of cheese. - **Yogurt Production**: Yogurt is produced using bacteria, specifically *Lactobacillus*. This bacterium ferments lactose (the sugar found in milk) into lactic acid, which thickens the milk and gives yogurt its tangy flavor. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, both cheese and yogurt are products of the fermentation process, which involves specific microorganisms that contribute to their unique textures and flavors. ### Final Answer: Cheese and yogurt are products of the process of fermentation. ---
