Solution

The correct option is C Light independent reaction enzymes
A) Chlorophyll is located within the thylakoid membrane. But chlorophyll is present in both lower (algae) and higher plants and some bacteria as well.
B) The light-dependent reactions use light energy to make ATP and NADPH. This is also seen in lower plants.
C) Light-independent enzymes RuBisCO and RuBP are present only in higher plants.
D) Lysosomes are usually present in animal cells. They can be present in lower plants.
So the correct answer is 'Light independent reaction enzymes'.
