I think its b
YES! you are right
I had to write out the formula of photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2
In photosynthesis water (\(\sf H_2O\)) breaks into \(\sf H^+\) + \(\sf O_2\) + 2e. These electrons are passed on to the electron transport system of photosynthesis, H2 is used up in glucose synthesis and O2 is liberated.

Then as you see........ water loses 2-hydrogens aka becomes oxidized (Loss eletrons) which are given to the Carbon source.
