Answer : 2. "Ernest Rutherford "
Explanation :

1. The proton was discovered by Rutherford. The name proton is derived from the Greek word protos meaning 'first'. The proton is a positively charged particle located in the nucleus of an atom, which was discovered by Ernest Rutherford in 1920. Rutherford proved in 1917 that the nucleus of the hydrogen atom (ie a proton) is present in the nuclei of all other atoms.

2. The nucleus of the atom was discovered by Ernest Rutherford in his famous gold foil experiment in the year 1911. The value of the particle is 1.6*10-19 C. To make an atom neutral, it has the same number of protons and electrons. He used the same concept to discover the proton.

Answer : 3. "lactic acid"
Explanation :

lactic acid is one of the end products of anaerobic respiration in humans and some other organisms. During anaerobic respiration, which occurs in the absence of oxygen, glucose is partially broken down to generate energy. In the absence of oxygen, cells can convert pyruvate, a product of glycolysis, into lactic acid. This process, called lactic acid fermentation, helps generate energy in the absence of oxygen but also leads to the accumulation of lactic acid, causing muscle fatigue and soreness.
