Light reactions of photosynthesis are carried out by four major protein complexes: Photosystem I (PSI), photosystem II (PSII), the cytochrome b6f complex and ATP synthase. The following are certain statements on PSII:

a. Red light absorbed by photosystem II (PSII) produces a strong oxidant and a weak reductant.

b. Far-red light absorbed by photosystem II (PSI) produces a weak oxidant and a strong reductant.

c. The strong oxidant generated by PSII oxidizes water,

d. The strong reductant generated by PSII oxidizes water

Which one of the following combinations of the above statements is correct?
