The growth of bacteria (lactobacillus) in milk leads to curd formation. A minimum bacterial population density of 0.8 (in suitable units) is needed to form curd. In the graph below, the population density of lactobacillus in 1 litre of milk is plotted as a function of time, at two different temperatures, 25°C and 37°C.
Consider the following statements based on the data shown above:
i. The growth in bacterial population stops earlier at 37°C as compared to 25°C
ii. The time taken for curd formation at 25°C is twice the time taken at 37°C
Which one of the following options is correct?

i. The growth in bacterial population stops earlier at 37°C as compared to 25°C
ii. The time taken for curd formation at 25°C is twice the time taken at 37°C
Which one of the following options is correct?
