Solution

The correct option is C succinic acid to fumaric acid
Succinate undergoes dehydrogenation to form fumarate with the help of a membrane based enzyme succinate dehydrogenasse. ${F A D H}_{2}$ (reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide) is produced.
$S u c c i n a t e + {F A D}^{+} S u c c i n a t e ⇌ d e h y d r o g e n a s e F u m a r a t e + {F A D H}_{2}$
