Correct Option: A

The correct answer is Option A

The second stage of photosynthesis, also known as the biosynthetic or assimilatory stage, is called the Dark stage. During this stage, a complex set of reactions takes place that does not require solar light, converting carbon dioxide and other compounds into sugars.

The process of assimilation of carbon by some enzymes is dependent on solar light.
