Solution

The correct option is B Light energy
The given reaction is of photolysis of water. During photosynthesis, water (H2O) splits into H+ ions and OH ions in presence of light energy. Electrons are released in this reaction and oxygen is evolved as the end product. Hence, the final reaction becomes 4H2O → 8H+ + 8e + 2O2.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
