Solution

The correct option is A Diffusion
Diffusion is a process in which the molecules intermingle due to their kinetic energy and movement of molecules is from higher concentration to lower concentration. During photosynthesis, the plant produces oxygen as a byproduct and hence the concentration of oxygen inside the cell is higher than the outer environment. Plant releases oxygen in external environment through diffusion process.
