Solution

The correct option is B Photosynthesis
  • Photosynthesis (P) is the process by which plants synthesize their own food. It utilises carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll and form simple sugars and carbohydrates such as glucose and releases oxygen as the byproduct.
  • Respiration (R) and combustion (Q) release carbon dioxide into the air.
  • Transpiration is related to the movement of water in plants.
