Solution

The correct option is C Respiration
Egg of the chick is porous, which allows the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the inside of the egg and the environment. If it is covered by plaster of paris, then pores will be closed which can lead to several respiratory problems.
So, the correct answer is option B.
