Correct option is (a) Prevent overgrowth

Easy explanation: The cooling water has the ability to cool the culture and this is used upon cell harvesting, both to prevent the overgrowth, and also reduce the activity of the protease. The minimum temperature of the cooling water in the laboratory is approximately 15°C.
