Solution

The correct option is B Hill
Robert Hill (1939) first of all showed that if chloroplast extracted from leaves of stellaria media and Lamium album are suspended in a test tube containing suitable electron acceptor e.g., potassium ferrioxalate and potassium ferricyanide, $O_{2}$ is released due to the photochemical splitting of water. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
