a
alcoholic fermentation
b
krebs cycle
c
electron transport chain.
d
lactic acid fermentation

Answer 1

In an anaerobic glucose medium, yeast will primarily produce ATP through:

**a. alcoholic fermentation**

During this process, yeast converts glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide, generating ATP in the absence of oxygen. The other options listed (Krebs cycle, electron transport chain, and lactic acid fermentation) are either aerobic processes or not directly applicable to yeast.
