Solution

The correct option is B Aerobic respiration
The end product of pyruvate and NADH which is formed by the dehydrogenation of glyceraldehydes 3 phosphates is then reoxidized to NAD+ by oxygen. During the oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate, much of free energy is liberated. Such type of events occurs in plant and animal tissues during aerobic conditions.
So, the correct answer is 'Aerobic respiration'.
