Explanation / Answer

Answer is (B) sporulation phase

Physiology of Different stages

Stationary phase---> regulation of toxin synthesis by gene expression.

Sporulation phase--> high ammount of toxin production

Vegetative phase----> vegetation of spores,small ammount of toxin production

Germination phase---> performance of enzymes by which dormant spores convert into active cell.
