Solution
The correct option is C
a. - PS-II, b.-PS-I, c.-Electron transport system
In Non-Cyclic electron transport, both PSII and PSI participate. Electrons released from H2O pass through PSII, the ETS (electron transport system) and PSI and reach NADP+. As electron movement is zig-zag it is also known as 'Z' scheme.
