Answer:

c. Fungi

d. Yeast

Explanation:

Both fungi and yeast will be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter.

<em>The size of microscopic fungi ranges from 2 to 10 microns  while the size of yeast ranges from 3 to 4 microns in diameter. Hence, both organisms will be effectively filtered off by a 0.22 micron filter paper.</em>

The size of bacteria ranges from 0.2 to 2 microns while that of virus is in nanometer. Hence both cannot be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter paper.

The correct options are c and d.
