The wavelength of light abosorbed by Pr form of phytochrome is :
1. | 640 nm | 2. | 680 nm |
3. | 720 nm | 4. | 620 nm |
In photosystem-I, the first electron acceptor is :
(1) ferredoxin
(2) cytochrome
(3) plastocyanin
(4) an iron-sulphur protein
During photorespiration, the oxygen consuming reaction(s) occur in :
(1) stroma of chloroplasts and mitochondria
(2) stroma of chloroplasts and peroxisomes
(3) grana of chloroplasts and peroxisomes
(4) stroma of chloroplasts
Photorespiration is favoured by
1. | high O2 and low CO2 concentration |
2. | low O2 and high CO2 concentration |
3. | low light intensity |
4. | low temperature. |
The C4 plants grow very efficiently in warm climates because they
1. | consume fewer ATP molecules for glucose synthesis |
2. | minimize photorespiratory losses |
3. | have more efficient chloroplasts |
4. | contain enzymes which are not inactivated at high temperatures. |
Following is needed in the ionic form during non-cyclic photophosphorylation but not during cyclic photophosphorylations in higher plants.
1. | copper | 2. | iron |
3. | manganese | 4. | zinc |
Production of NADPH in a chloroplast takes place during
1. cyclic photophosphorylation
2. non-cyclic photophosphorylation
3. series photophosphorylation
4. substrate level photophosphorylation.
The photoautotrophic organisms that do not split water to obtain reducing power are
1. | purple bacteria |
2. | cyanobacteria |
3. | green plants |
4. | none of these |
Dark reaction occurs
1. | only in light |
2. | only in the absence of light |
3. | independent of light |
4. | both (1) and (3). |
Photorespiration, usually occurs in
1. | one cell organelle |
2. | two cell organelles |
3. | three cell organelles |
4. | four cell organelles. |
