Breathing loss (also known as standing loss) is due to the release of gasoline vapour to the ambient air due to the expansion and contraction of vapour inside storage tanks. Breathing loss occurs irrespective of changes in the liquid level inside the tank.

Option C.

Because when the vapour pressure is high then Flashpoint is low, and breathing loss is high.
