Hints
Consider the given two statements:
| Assertion (A): | The oxygen evolved during photosynthesis comes from water molecules, not from carbon dioxide. |
| Reason (R): | Oxygen evolving complex is associated with Photosystem I located on thylakoid membrane. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
