Solution

The correct option is B Chlorella
The Warburg effect was first discovered by the German biochemist Otto Warburg. He discovered this in the green algae Chlorella.
As we know that oxygen is the by-product of photosynthesis, a high concentration of oxygen has an inhibitory effect on photosynthesis and it is known as the Warburg effect.
It is due to photorespiration which reduces the efficiency of photosynthesis.
So, the correct option is 'Chlorella'
