Solution

The correct option is A When there is no photosynthesis & respiration
The compensation point reached in a plant when the rate of photosynthesis is equal to the rate of respiration. This means that the carbon dioxide released from respiration is equivalent to that which is taken up during photosynthesis. It is achieved in dim light.
