The correct answer would be C, which is lactic acid fermentation. Cellular respiration without oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. ETS (or electron transport chain) reactions happen as the last step of aerobic cellular respiration, therefore it is incorrect. Alcoholic fermentation is a form of anaerobic, except it produces alcohol, so this answer choice is incorrect. Hope this helps! :)
