Assertion: In green plants `H_(2)O` is the hydrogen donor and is oxidised to `O_(2)`
Reason: In the purple and green sulphur bacteria, the oxidation product is sulphur or sulphate depending on the organism and not `O_(2)`.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason 1s the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.
