Solution
The correct option is CChlorella The experimental material that has largely been responsible for making rapid advances in research on photosynthesis is chlorella. Chlorella is a genus of single-cell green algae belonging to the phylum Chlorophyta. It contains the green photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll a and b in its chloroplast. It multiplies rapidly, by photosynthesis by utilizing only carbon dioxide, water, sunlight and a few minerals to reproduce. It is an important research plant which is even used in spaceships as a protein source.
