Solution
The correct option is A Glycolysis
Glycolysis provides ATP even in the absence of oxygen, therefore except cardiac muscles, all can survive anoxic episodes. It is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate. It occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Therefore, muscles can survive anoxic episodes because they receive ATP in the absence of O2 due to glycolysis. So, the correct answer is option A.
