What does LDH stand for?

Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase
Lactic Dehydration
Lactic Dehydragenanse
Lipid Dihydrogenase

The correct answer is: Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase

LDH stands for Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of lactic acid to pyruvate in the process of cellular respiration. Lactic Dehydration (B) and Lactic Dehydragenanse (C) are not accurate terms and do not refer to a known enzyme or process. Lipid Dihydrogenase (D) refers to a different enzyme involved in the metabolism of lipids and is not related to LDH at all. So, the correct answer is A - Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase.
