Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Chlorella has maximum efficiency to convert solar energy into chemical energy.
Chlorella is a genus of about thirteen species of single-celled green algae of the division Chlorophyta.
Their chloroplasts contain the green photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll-a and -b. In ideal conditions cells of Chlorella multiply rapidly, requiring only carbon dioxide, water, sunlight, and a small number of minerals to reproduce.
Chlorella could convert 20% of solar energy into a plant that, when dried, contains 50% protein.
