A)  

Photorespiration is a type of respiration which occurs in green cells in presence of light. It involves three organelles - chloroplast, peroxisomes and mitochondria. Respiratory substrate in photorespiration is a 2-carbon compound glycolic acid (2C), hence called C2  cycle. RuBP-carboxylase in normal O2 /CO2  conc, acts as 'carboxylase'. It is the key enzyme of photosynthesis in C3  plants.
