Cyanogenic glycosides release:

HCN (C) is correct here. This is core PLANT SEC METABOLITES: once you know the definition or pathway step, HCN is the clear fit. The wrong ones are A) NH3; B) CO2; D) SO2. If the topic is about gradients or potentials, water/solutes move from higher to lower of the relevant quantity.

Glycosides consist of:

The right choice is C: Glycone and aglycone. In PLANT SEC METABOLITES, that matches how the process or concept actually works — the other choices mix up related ideas or use the wrong mechanism. Skip these: A) Two sugars; B) Protein-lipid; D) Only sugar. A quick check: if an option needs energy, pumps, or the opposite direction of movement, ask whether that really applies.
