Dear student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query
1. a. Fermentation
2. a. The milk in the packets is pasteurized before packing. Also, the packets are airtight and do not allow microbes to enter inside which prevents milk from spoiling. This is why it can be consumed without boiling.
b. Tuberculosis is a communicable disease and can spread by air. When the person is coughing, the fine droplets containing the causal agent of the disease will be released into the air. This can cause the disease in other people. This is why we should not stand close TB patient while he/she is coughing. Please post rest of the questions in separate threads.
