Solution

The correct option is C Cori cycle
The Cori cycle (also known as lactic acid cycle), refers to the metabolic pathway, in which lactate produced by anaerobic glycolysis in the muscles moves to the liver and is converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is metabolised back to lactate.
