Hey mate

Here is ur answer

a. The curd is formed by the division of the bacteria Lactobacillus in it. When small amount of curd is added to warm milk, the bacteria in the curd divides to convert the rest of the milk also into the curd. But curd sets faster in summer because microbial division rate is high in hot climate than in winters.

b. Because of the same reason that the microbial activity is high in summers, more lactic acid is produced by the bacteria in summers at a great rate, the curd turns sour faster in summers than in winters.

Curd is formed by the microbial action of Lactobaciluss in milk.

This lactobaciluss required little warm temperature to grow and divide. During which they produce lactic acid. Which is responsible for giving sour taste to a curd.

We know that in summer temperature is very much higher than tempertaure in winter. Hence, increased temperature means more growth of Lactobacilli and thus excess production of lactic acid.

This excess production of acid is responsible for that extreme sour taste.
