Solution

The correct option is A Cu, Mn, Fe
Cu, Mn and Fe Micronutrient elements affect both photosynthetic and mitochondrial electron transport as follows:
Iron(Fe) - It is an important constituent of a protein involved in the transfer of electrons like ferredoxin and cytochromes.
Manganese(Mn) - It activates enzymes of respiration, photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism.
Copper(Cu) - It is a component or activator of plastocyanin, cytochrome oxidase, RuBP carboxylase.
So the correct answer is 'Cu, Mn, Fe'.
