Solution
Answer : (c) (i) and (iv)
Fermentation is an anaerobic process which takes place in the absence of oxygen that converts sugar to acids or alcohol. It occurs in yeast, bacteria, and also in oxygen-starved muscle cells, as in the case of lactic acid fermentation.
So, the correct answer is option C.
