Solution

The correct option is B Production of food using the green pigments and the light energy.
Photosynthesis is the process of formation of glucose with the help of raw materials like carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight. This process takes place in the chloroplast cells of the plants and the pigment chlorophyll is responsible for it.
It takes place by two main phases; the light and dark phase.
So, the correct option is 'Production of food using the green pigments and the light energy.'
