Solution

The correct option is A CO2 compensation point
  • The compensation point is the light intensity on the light curve where the rate of photosynthesis exactly matches the rate of cellular respiration.
  • In assimilation terms, at the compensation point, the net carbon dioxide assimilation is zero.
So, the correct option is 'CO2 compensation point'
