Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A Peroxisomes
Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotes. Photorespiration is a light-dependent process that takes place in mitochondria in which oxygen is absorbed and carbon dioxide is released. It is counter-productive to photosynthetic carbon dioxide fixation and decreases plant productivity. But it also provides protection against conditions caused by high light intensity, drought, and salinity. Thus the correct answer is option A.
