Answer:

A. a compound that donates protons

Explanation: According to the Brønsted-Lowry definition, an acid is a substance that can donate a proton (H+ ion) to another molecule. A base is a substance that can accept that donated H+. After the Brønsted-Lowry acid donates its proton, it becomes the conjugate base of the acid.
