Solution

The correct option is B Incomplete oxidation
The process of respiration can be aerobic or anaerobic. The process of anaerobic respiration is also called as fermentation. Fermentation is a form of anaerobic respiration in which carbohydrates are incompletely oxidised to either ethanol and carbon dioxide as in yeast or lactic acid, as in the muscles of higher vertebrates.
