Best answer
Right option is (c) Agitation

Explanation: Agitation is not provided or done in the surface culture fermentation. In this, microorganisms grow on the surface of the liquid medium without agitation. The filtrate is separate from the cell mass and is processed to recover the desired product after an appropriate incubation time.
