Some xanthophylls also participate in energy dissipation such as in light conversion of Violaxanthin to Zeaxanthin with antheraxanthin as the intermediate and vice-versa, which of the following statements is CORRECT?

a.) The conversion of Violaxanthin to Zeaxanthin a singlet oxygen is removed with the help of co-factor Ascorbate and violaxanthin de-epoxidase under high PPFD

b.) Zeaxanthin is oxidised into violaxanthin with the help of NADPH and oxygen under low PPFD

c.) Conversion of Violaxanthin to Zeaxanthin a singlet oxygen is removed with the help of NADPH and water under low PPFD

d.) Zeaxanthin is oxidised into violaxanthin in presence of enzyme known as violaxanthin de-epoxidase and co-factor Ascorbate under high PPFD
