The correct sequence of cell organelles during photorespiration is :

1. Chloroplast-Golgi bodies-mitochondria
2. Chloroplast-Rough Endoplasmic reticulum, Dictyosomes
3. Chloroplast-peroxisome-mitochondria
4. Chloroplast-vacuole-peroxisome

Correct answer: Chloroplast-peroxisome-mitochondria

Solution

Photorespiration begins in the chloroplast when RuBisCO oxygenates RuBP, producing glycolate-related intermediates. These are processed in the peroxisome and then transferred to the mitochondria for further conversion, so the organelle sequence is chloroplast → peroxisome → mitochondria.
