Solution

The correct option is A Plastoquinone
Electrons from excited chlorophyll molecule of photosystem II are accepted first by plastoquinone.
Electrons from plastoquinone are transfered via cytochrome b and cytochrome f to plastocyanin, which passes them on to photosystem I during the non-cyclic photophosphorylation pathway.
