Solution

The correct option is A one molecule of chlorophyll a
The pigments of light reaction are organised into two discrete photochemical light harvesting complexes (LHC) within the Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II). The LHC are made up of hundreds of pigment molecules bound to proteins. Each photosystem in LHC has all the pigments except one molecule of chlorophyll a.
