Consider the two statements:
Assertion(A): The protons or hydrogen ions that are produced by the splitting of water accumulate within the lumen of the thylakoids.
Reason(R): The primary accepter of electrons, which is located towards the outer side of the membrane, transfers its electron not to an electron carrier but to an H carrier.
 
1. (A) is True but (R) is False
2. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) explains (A)
3. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A)
4. Both (A) and (R) are False

The ATP synthase enzyme consists of two parts where:
I: CF0 is embedded in the thylakoid membrane and forms a transmembrane channel that carries out facilitated diffusion of protons across the membrane.
II: CF1 protrudes on the outer surface of the thylakoid membrane on the side that faces the stroma.
 
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
