A = pyruvic acid is produced.
B = lactic acid is produced if pyruvic acid accumulates.
C = ATP is produced.

The answer is (D).
During anaerobic glycolysis (or anaerobic respiration), glycolysis proceeds as normal, breaking glucose down into pyruvic acid and producing ATP in the process. However, instead of sending the pyruvate to the Krebs cycle, the pyruvate is reduced to lactic acid to regenerate NAD+ for use in glycolysis.

Anerobic glycolysis is much less efficient than glycolysis in the presence of oxygen, so a) cannot be true. C) is true as pyruvate is the product of the first stages of glycolysis; the lack of oxygen causes it to be converted to pyruvic acid instead of being further metabolized into ATP. I don't know about b, but since d can't be right as a is false, the answer has to be c.
