Solution

The correct option is D Lactic acid fermentation
Lactic acid fermentation is a process by which glucose, fructose and sucrose are converted into energy and the metabolite lactic acid. It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells and allows glycolysis to continue by ensuring that NADH is returned to its oxidised state (NAD+) without releasing CO2.
