Explanation

To solve this problem, we need to match the microorganisms in Column I with their corresponding products or uses in Column II. Let's analyze each microorganism: $\newline \bullet$ a. Clostridium butylicum: This bacterium is known for producing butyric acid. $\newline$ - This matches with (ii) Butyric Acid. $\newline \bullet$ b. Trichoderma polysporum: This fungus is known for producing Cyclosporin-A, an immunosuppressive drug. $\newline$ - This matches with (i) Cyclosporin-A. $\newline \bullet$ c. Monascus purpureus: This fungus is used to produce statins, which are blood cholesterol-lowering agents.
