The correct answer is option b. "the citric acid cycle".
Explanation:
The citric acid cycle is one of the most important pathways of the cellular metabolism because of its role in energy production and biosynthesis.

Answer:
Multiple Sclerosis is an inflammatory disease in which myelin sheath of nerve cells of brain and spinal cord are damaged.
Explanation:
Cause:- (Exact cause of inflammation is not known)
- But damage is caused due to attack by autoimmune cells or antibodies against myelin sheath.
Types of tissues attack:-
- Oligodendrocytes and myelin sheath is damaged and stripped away from axon and the process is known as demyelination.
- Myelin sheaths are made up of fatty tissues and help in transmission of electric impulse.
Result of immune system attack:-
- Damaged myelin sheath stop forming whIte matter of central nervous system.
- Hence disrupt coordinating communication between different brain regions.
Signs and symptoms:- vary from person to person
- Diminished eyesight.
- Disrupt motor coordination.
- Weak sensory perception.
- Fatigue and dizziness.
- Speech disorder.
- Muscle weakness and spasticity.
- Difficulty in urination and stool.
Diagnosis and treatment:-
- Diagnosis include MRI T2 findings and cerebrospinal fluid specific oligoclonal bands.

Explanation:
Compounds are those substances that are made up of elements that are combined in a fixed proportion or ratio. The individual property of element is lost once it forms a compound. The physical and chemical properties of both compound and an element is different.
Example of a compound is water and its elements are hydrogen and oxygen. Water is a colorless liquid that acts as a solvent and dissolves most of the solutes in it. While oxygen and hydrogen occurs as gases in their elemental state.
