Water affects the process of photosynthesis in higher plants because:
I: Water stress can cause the stomata to close, hence, reducing the carbon dioxide availability.
II: Water stress also makes leaves wilt, thus, reducing the surface area of the leaves and their metabolic activity as well.

Joseph Priestley (1733-1804) in 1770 performed a series of experiments that revealed the essential role of air in the growth of green plants. Priestley observed that a candle burning in a closed space – a bell jar, soon gets extinguished (Figure a, b, c, d). Similarly, a mouse would soon suffocate in a closed space. He concluded that a burning candle or an animal that breathe the air, both somehow, damage the air. But when he placed a mint plant in the same bell jar, he found that the mouse stayed alive and the candle continued to burn.
     
The conclusions that can be drawn from these experiments will be:
I: Plants restore to the air whatever breathing animals and burning candles remove.
II: Sunlight is essential to the plant process that somehow purifies the air fouled by burning candles or breathing animals.

What would be true for the sequence of events shown in the given diagram:
 
I: The whole scheme of transfer of electrons, starting from the PS II, uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I, excitation of electrons, transfer to another acceptor, and finally down-hill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+ is called the Z scheme.
II: The electrons that are moved from photosystem II get replaced by electrons available due to splitting of water.

What would be true for the events shown in the given diagram?
I:  A possible location where this could be happening is in the stroma lamellae.
II: While the membrane or lamellae of the grana have both PS I and PS II, the stroma lamellae membranes lack PS II as well as NADP reductase enzyme.
