Best answer
Correct choice is (b) Mortierella vinacea

The best explanation: Mortierella vinacea is capable of producing raffinase, but not invertase. Raffinase catalyzes the hydrolysis of raffinose. Yeast is used to produce invertase. Pullulanase is produced by Bacillus acidopullulyticus. Kluyveromyces lactis produces lactase.
