Answer: b) plants perform cellular respiration to generate usable chemical energy in the form of ATP

Step-by-step explanation:

plants carry photosynthesis to convert carbohydrates from co2 (hence a is incorrect)

plants use glucose (made by photosynthesis) to make ATP during respiration (therefore b is correct)

plants perform photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates, ATP is made afterwards, during respiration (hence c is incorrect)
