Which of the statements given above is/are correct? 

A.  1 only

B.  2 only 

C.  Both 1 and 2

D. Neither 1 nor 2

That is correct. 

In addition to organs, one can also donate tissue. Tissues is composed of layers of cells that function together to serve a specific purpose. Cornea is one of the most commonly transplanted tissues each year. 

In India, a large number of people die due to road traffic accidents. People that die due to these circumstances are unable to donate their organs. As organs need to be transplanted as soon as possible following the donor’s death. Organs come from people who are certified as dead while on a ventilator in a hospital intensive care unit. A deceased donor is kept on a ventilator after he or she has been declared brain dead until the organs can be harvested.

shouldn't the answer be D?

Cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green algae), too can perform photosynthesis and produce sugar by fixing the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The yield of sugars from cyanobacteria could potentially be much higher than that of land-based crops. Further, unlike plant-based sugars, cyanobacterial biomass provides a nitrogen source in the form of proteins.
