$\huge\mathcal{\underline{\underline{\purple{Explanation:-}}}}$

❥lactobacillus bacteria present in the teaspoon of curd convert the milk into curd.

❥in this process ,the bacteria break down lactose sugar in the milk to form lactic acid.

❥this acid makes the Curd slightly acidic, which makes the milk thick and helps in preservation.
