Solution

The correct option is B Alcohol and carbon dioxide
Anaerobic respiration is a form of cellular respiration that occurs when oxygen is absent.
The substrate glucose is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide in yeast and plants. In human muscles when oxygen supply is less substrate glucose is broken down to lactic acid anaerobically.
So, the correct answer is option C.
