Choose the option that completes the sentence using the correct spelling.
Milk is ______ before it is sold to customers.Answer & explanation
Answer: B) pasteurized
Meaning: pasteurized = heated to a set temperature to kill harmful germs *(पाश्चुरीकृत, जीवाणुरहित किया गया)*.
Milk is treated this way before it is sold, so the blank needs this word.
Build the spelling.
The word comes from the scientist Louis Pasteur — keep his name intact.
Pasteur + ize + d = p-a-s-t-e-u-r-i-z-e-d
The vowels after *past* run e-u, exactly as in *Pasteur*.
Why the others are wrong.
#B pastureized — writes *pasture* (a grassy field, *चरागाह*) in place of *Pasteur*; the u and e have moved.
#B pastuerized — swaps the vowels to u-e; the name is Pasteur, so it is e-u.
#B pastuerised — the same u-e swap; the British *-ised* ending is acceptable, but the stem is still misspelt.
