Solution
The correct option is A Stroma of chloroplasts and peroxisomes
Photorespiration is the process that occurs in C3 plants. In this process, peroxisomes, chloroplast, and mitochondria take part. The oxygen-consuming reactions occur in peroxisomes and stroma of chloroplast while CO2 releasing reaction occurs in mitochondria.
