Correct answer

C. Occurs only in cells with aerobic respiration

Step-by-step solution

Option (3) is incorrect about chloroplasts. They are spherical, ovoid or disc-shaped cell organelles. These are found in plants and algae. They are involved in photosynthesis due to the presence of chlorophyll in them. During photosynthesis, O ₂ is released.
