Don't let the word "Photosynthetic Algae" scare you. it's a plant. think photosynthesis. So based on that, what do you think could be the answer?

It's not that simple - it says the sugars will be "broken down", while photosynthesis creates them. This should occur during cellular respiration. Glycolysis means "splitting of sugars" so the correct answer is A, glycolysis, during respiration.
