Vedclass · Answer

(B) Malt is primarily produced from the grains of $Barley$ $(Hordeum \, vulgare)$.During the malting process, the grains are soaked in water to induce germination.This process activates the synthesis of $Gibberellins$ in the embryo, which then stimulate the production of hydrolytic enzymes like $\alpha$-amylase in the aleurone layer.These enzymes break down the stored starch into simple sugars, which are essential for the brewing and distilling industries.
