A)produces NADH and CO₂; pyruvate oxidized
B)produces ATP, NADH, and CO₂

E)​uses a membrane-bound system that sets up production of ATP

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fermentation regenerates NAD+ as pyruvate is converted to ethanol or lactate.

(Note: options A and C describe glycolysis, not fermentation. Option B describes cellular respiration. Option E is not specific enough to any particular metabolic process.)
