2. harvest photons and transfer light energy to the reaction-center chlorophyll
3. synthesize ATP from ADP and Pi
4. transfer electrons to ferredoxin and then NADPH

Which statement describes the functioning of photosystem II?
1. Light energy excites electrons in the thylakoid membrane electron transport chain.
2. Photons are passed along to a reaction-center chlorophyll.
3. The P680 chlorophyll donates a pair of protons to NADP+, which is thus converted to NADPH.
4. The electron vacancies in P680+ are filled by electrons derived from water.

Which of the following statements best represents the relationships between the light reactions and the Calvin cycle?
1. The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the Calvin cycle, and the cycle returns ADP, Pi, and NADP+ to the light reactions.
2. The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the carbon fixation step of the Calvin cycle, and the cycle provides water and electrons to the light reactions.
3. The light reactions supply the Calvin cycle with CO2 to produce sugars, and the Calvin cycle supplies the light reactions with sugars to produce ATP.
4. The light reactions provide the Calvin cycle with oxygen for electron flow, and the Calvin cycle provides the light reactions with water to split.

Some photosynthetic organisms contain chloroplasts that lack photosystem II, yet are able to survive. The best way to detect the lack of photosystem II in these organisms would be
1.  to determine if they have thylakoids in the chloroplasts.
2.  to test for liberation of O2 in the light.
3.   to test for CO2 fixation in the dark.
4.  to do experiments to generate an action spectrum.
