Answer»

The correct choice is (c) GERMINATION of barley

The best I can explain: Malt extract is FREQUENTLY used in the brewing of beer. Its production begins by GERMINATING barley grain in a PROCESS known as malting, immersing barley in WATER to encourage the grain to sprout, then drying the barley to halt the progress when the sprouting begins.
