Solution

The correct option is A A-show the action spectrum of chlorophyll a
A-shows the action spectrum of chlorophyll a that means it shows maximum photosynthesis occurs in blue-violet and red parts of the light
B-Shows the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a that means Chlorophyll a absorb maximum light in the blue-violet and red parts of the light.

Action spectrum of photosynthesis corresponds closely to absorption spectra of chlorophyll a showing that the chl-a is the main photosynthetic pigment.
