The propositions are:
a.alkylating agents
b.antimetabolites
c.topisomerase inhibitors
d.nucleoside analogs
e.<span>AZT

The right answer is A, 
An alkylating agent is a compound capable of adding alkyl groups to various electronegative groups under conditions present within the cells.

Antimetabolites are an anticancer drug but act differently than the alkylating agent. (interfere with folic acid)
Topoisomerase inhibitor acts by inhibiting isomerase, used in antibiotherapy (like quinolones).
Nucleoside analogs are analogs as their name says, it does not alkylate nucleotides.
AZT (</span><span>Zidovudine) is an antiretroviral drug that inhibits reverse transcriptase.</span>

<h2>D) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

During citric acid cycle, Acetyl Coenzyme A is completely oxidized in form of CO2 and produce NADH, FADH2 and GTP (ATP)

Succinate is converted to fumarate with the help of succinate dehydrogenase and FADH2 is produced during this step

In the given conditions, if the amount of succinate is increased in comparison to malonic acid then it reduces the effect of malonic acid, therefore malonic acid will not be able to inhibit the conversion of succinate to fumarate and hence succinate will be the substrate and fumarate, the product in the reaction
