Solution

The correct option is D $^{14} C$ and $^{18} O$
Photosynthetic rates of the large centric diatom Coscinodiscus granii were measured by means of multicolor variable chlorophyll fluorescence imaging, single cell $^{14} C$ assimilation, and optical O $_{2}$ sensor measurements during light.
$^{18} O$ was used to prove that water is the molecule from which oxygen is liberated during photosynthesis.
So the correct option is ' $^{14} C$ and $^{18} O$ '.
