Streptococcus Mutans One of the Bacteria That Can Cause the Loss

Streptococcus mutans one of the bacteria that can cause the loss of tooth enamel in humans.The metabolic process that this particular species of bacteria uses that can result in enamel breakdown is

A) ferment sugar into lactic acid,which increases the pH of the mouth causing loss of calcium from the enamel of the teeth.
B) ferment sugar into lactic acid,which decreases the pH of the mouth causing loss of calcium from the enamel of the teeth.
C) ferment sugar into lactic acid that attacks the tooth enamel directly and causes dental carries.
D) ferment sugar into lactic acid,which decreases the amount of calcium that can be absorbed by the teeth from the diet.
