Solution

The correct option is A Sugarcane
Four carbon Aspartate is transported from mesophyll cells to bundle sheath cell in sugarcane and maize.
This Carbon fixation method with 4 carbon acid is to reduce the chances of photorespiration. This pathway builds up high concentration of carbon dioxide in the Chloroplast of the bundle sheath cells.
So the correct answer is ' Sugarcane and maize'.
