Correct option is D
The correct answer is: (D) anaerobic respiration in yeasts
Explanation:
- Ethanol is produced during anaerobic respiration in yeasts.
- In the absence of oxygen, yeasts convert glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide through a process called fermentation.
- This is a type of anaerobic respiration.
The general equation for this process is:
This is the process used in making alcoholic beverages like beer and wine, where yeast ferments sugars into ethanol.
- In contrast, aerobic respiration (which occurs when oxygen is present) produces carbon dioxide and water instead of ethanol.
