Solution
The correct option is B Nitrogen fixation in plant roots of legumes
Nitrogen fixation in the plant roots of legumes is done by bacteria known as Rhizobium and not algae.
Carbon fixation is the conversion process of carbon dioxide to complex carbohydrates (glucose) by green plants.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants fix carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Being photosynthetic, they increase the level of dissolved oxygen.
Algae are of great importance in an aquatic ecosystem where they are part of the primary producers and form the basis of the food chains of aquatic ecosystems.
