Solution

The correct option is A A and B
Photosynthesis is a process in which green plant forms their food in presence of light and during this process oxygen gas is evolved. Respiration is a process in which living organism take oxygen from the atmosphere and in the cell, this oxygen is used for oxidation of food to produce energy and carbon dioxide is evolved through this mechanism. Transpiration is the evaporative loss of water by plants. it occurs mainly through the stomata in the leaves. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
