Options
- AA - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
- BA - 1, B - 2, C - 4, D - 3
- CA - 3, B - 4, C - 2, D - 1
- DA - 4, B - 3, C - 1, D - 2
Correct answer
A. A - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
Step-by-step solution
A - 2: Alcohol fermentation produces ethanol and CO2, catalyzed by pyruvic acid decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase. B - 1: Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid and occurs in animal cells during exercise. C - 3: Pyruvic acid decarboxylase is an enzyme that converts pyruvic acid to ethanol and CO2. D - 4: Lactate dehydrogenase is the enzyme that converts pyruvic acid to lactic acid.
