Solution

The correct option is B Photosynthesis.
High concentration of oxygen has an inhibitory effect on photosynthesis and is known as Warburg effect. This is because respiration and photosynthesis compete with each other for common intermediates. Oxygen may compete with carbon dioxide for hydrogen and become reduced in place of carbon dioxide.
