Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Robert Hill (1939) first of all showed that if chloroplasts extracted from leaves of stellaria media and lamium album are suspended in a test tube containing suitable electron acceptor e.g., potassium ferrooxalate and potassium ferrixyanide, `O_(2)` is released due to photochemical splitting of water.
