The energy wastage occurs during

1. Dark respiration
2. Photosynthesis
3. Glycolysis
4. Photorespiration

Correct answer: Photorespiration

Solution

Photorespiration wastes energy because it uses ATP and releases previously fixed carbon as CO2, lowering the overall efficiency of photosynthesis. Unlike normal photosynthesis, it does not contribute to net sugar production.
