Answer:

A) photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is the harmful metabolic process which takes place when the concentration of oxygen in the leaf increases compared to carbon dioxide.

The RUBISCO enzyme which usually binds the carbon dioxide now binds the oxygen and form the phosphoglycolate and 3 phosphoglycerate. The phosphoglycolate is lost through the Calvin cycle as Carbon dioxide molecule. This loss proves harmful to the plants.

The photorespiration occurs when the plant faces high temperature therefore n order to prevent water loss the stomata gets closed. This result in the binding of the oxygen to the RUBISCO and thus photorespiration begins.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Which statement correctly compares the body’s energy storage molecules? Glycogen is the body’s main source of energy, but lipids
Artemon [7]

The correct answer is Glycogen is the body’s main source of energy, but lipids contain most of the body’s stored energy.

The glycogen  is a polymer of the glucose. The carbohydrates are the main source of the energy in our body. The glucose that is left after the normal energy utilisation by the body is converted into the glycogen and stored at various location, but the most of the energy reserves of our body lies in the fats, which is stored in form of lipids.
