Answer 1

Answer: (B)

A - s, B - p, C - q

Photolysis of water causes the formation of $H^{+}$ and $O{H}^{-}$ ions. It is a reaction of photosynthesis.
Pyruvic acid can be made from glucose through glycolysis, converted back to carbohydrates via gluconeogenesis or to fatty acids through acetyl-CoA.
Alcoholic fermentation is also called as ethanol fermentation. It is a biological process in which elements, such as glucose, fructose and sucrose are converted into cellular energy and thereby produce ethanol and carbon dioxide as metabolic waste products.
