Right answer is (b) pH electrodes

Easiest explanation: The sensors which penetrate into the fermenter are pH electrodes, dissolved-oxygen electrodes, etc. Exhaust gas analyzers work on samples which are continuously withdrawn from the fermenter. Tachometers and Load cells are sensors which do not come in contact with fermentation broth or gases.
