Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is commonly known as baker's yeast and is used in the production of bread, beer, and wine.
Answer: C
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can also cause fungal vaginitis in humans.
Answer: F
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is also used in the fermentation process of soy sauce.
Answer: G
Some species of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are edible mycorrhizal fungi and form symbiotic relationships with trees, helping to increase their nutrient uptake.
The other options listed are not associated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A is describing Aphids, D is describing Rhizopus stolonifer, and E is describing Armillaria ostoyae.
