Solution

The correct option is C Transfers electrons between PS II to cyt b $_{6}$ f

During noncyclic photophosphorylation, PQ acts as electron as well as H $^{+}$ carrier. It transfers electrons between PS II to cyt b $_{6}$ f.

Plastocyanin transfers electrons between cyt b $_{6}$ f to PS I. Phaeophytin is the primary acceptor of electrons from PS II.
