Answer: Option A and Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole procedure of photosynthesis takes place in two stages of photosynthesis.

It includes light dependent reaction and light independent reactions or dark reaction.

The light dependent reaction includes absorption of light energy. The green pigment known as chlorophyll is required to absorb sunlight and convert it into chemical energy.

During this process the water is broken down into H+ ions and Oxygen is released into the environment.

So, the correct answer is option A and Option C
