Solution
The correct option is D Photorespiration
- In plant cells, peroxisomes are associated with photorespiration.
- Peroxisomes (microbody) are small organelle which contains reducing and oxidising enzyme catalase.
- It helps in the breakdown of long chain fatty acids through beta-oxidation and converts them into to medium chain fatty acids, which are subsequently broken down to carbon dioxide and water in the mitochondria (photorespiration).
- So, the correct answer is 'Photorespiration'.
