The correct option is D Alcohol and carbon dioxide

Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen to produce energy. Lower organisms such as bacteria and yeast use this mode of respiration for their energy needs.

The chemical equation for anaerobic respiration is: Glucose → Alcohol + Carbon dioxide + Energy
