Solution

The correct option is D all of these
Anaerobic respiration is the process of release of energy in an enzymatically controlled stepwise incomplete (partial) degradation of organic food in the absence of O2.

In case of microorganisms, the term fermentation is more commonly used instead of anaerobic respiration. Fermentation is classified into alcoholic fermentation (where ethanol or ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide are the end products) and lactic acid fermentation (when lactic acid is the end product).

Yeast commonly carries out alcoholic fermentation, and hence is used to produce alcoholic beverages like beer and wine.
