Production of NADPH in a chloroplast takes place during which photophosphorylation:
1. cyclic
2. non-cyclic
3. series
4. substrate-level
| 1. | The synthesis of ATP using light energy during photosynthesis. |
| 2. | The production of glucose directly from sunlight. |
| 3. | The splitting of water molecules to release oxygen. |
| 4. | The generation of ATP without the use of light. |
| Statement I: | The Z scheme of electron transport involves both Photosystem I and Photosystem II. |
| Statement II: | Non-cyclic photophosphorylation generates both ATP and NADPH. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
| 2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
| 3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
| 4. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
| Assertion (A): | The cyclic flow hence, results only in the synthesis of ATP, but not of NADPH + H+. |
| Reason (R): | The excited electron does not pass on to NADP+ but is cycled back to the PS I complex through the electron transport chain. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
| 2. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 3. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A) |
Synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate in the presence of light is known as-
1. phosphorylation
2. photo-phosphorylation
3. photorespiration
4.photooxidation
The major limitation of cyclic photophosphorylation is that it does not:
| 1. | yield ATP |
| 2. | yield NADPH |
| 3. | yield either ATP or NADPH |
| 4. | provide energy for the cell |
Energy is transferred from the light reaction step to the dark reaction step by
1. chlorophyll
2. ADP
3. ATP
4. RuBP
| Assertion (A): | RuBisCO has affinity for both the gases: CO2 and O2. |
| Reason (R): | RuBisCO is the most abundant enzyme in the biosphere. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True, but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False, but (R) is True. |
