Solution
The correct option is A electrons When charge is transferred , electrons are transferred actually because electrons are mobile and lighter than protons , besides this protons are bound in nucleus , so it is easy for electrons to move compared to protons .
Neutrons and photons are chargeless particle so they can't transfer the charge .Quarks are fundamental particles of protons and neutrons so they don't participate in charge transfer .
