The first step for initiation of photosynthesis will be
1. | Photolysis of water |
2. | Excitement of chlorophyll molecule due to absorption of light |
3. | ATP formation |
4. | Glucose formation |
The ions comprising the Oxygen Evolving Complex associated with PS II are:
1. | Manganese and Magnesium | 2. | Manganese and Calcium |
3. | Calcium and Iron | 4. | Magnesium and Iron |
The electrons excited to higher energy levels during photosynthesis belong to:
1. | Water | 2. | RuBP |
3. | glucose | 4. | chlorophyll |
In cyclic electron flow:
1. | the electron begins in a pigment complex called photosystem I, passes from the primary acceptor to ferredoxin and then to plastoquinone, then to cytochrome b6f, and then to plastocyanin before returning to chlorophyll. |
2. | the electron begins in a pigment complex called photosystem II, passes from the primary acceptor to ferredoxin and then to plastoquinone, then to cytochrome b6f, and then to plastocyanin before returning to chlorophyll. |
3. | the electron begins in a pigment complex called photosystem I, passes from the primary acceptor to ferredoxin and then to plastocyanin, then to cytochrome b6f, and then to plastoquinone before returning to chlorophyll. |
4. | the electron begins in a pigment complex called photosystem II, passes from the primary acceptor to ferredoxin and then to plastocyanin, then to cytochrome b6f, and then to plastoquinone before returning to chlorophyll. |
Identify the incorrect statement regarding non-cyclic photophosphorylation:
1. | Being a light reaction, non-cyclic photophosphorylation occurs in the thylakoid membrane. |
2. | The photosystem II complex replaces its lost electrons from an external source. |
3. | It generates both ATP and NADPH |
4. | When the chloroplast runs low on ATP for the Calvin cycle, the plant may shift from cyclic to non-cyclic electron flow. |
In the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis:
1. | NADPH is reduced to NADP+ by the enzyme NADP reductase |
2. | initial carbon fixation takes place forming a 3 carbon compound. |
3. | ATP is not produced. |
4. | light is absorbed and energy is transported to reaction-center chlorophyll a |
Photosystem I is directly associated with:
1. | passing electrons to plastoquinone |
2. | receiving electrons from plastocyanin |
3. | P680 as the chlorophyll a reaction-center |
4. | removal of electrons and protons from water |
Light dependent reactions are so called because they require light:
1. | to provide electrons for the process |
2. | to split the water molecule |
3. | to impart energy to the electrons in the reaction center |
4. | to hydrolyse ATP molecules |
Identify the correct statement:
1. | The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the Calvin cycle. |
2. | The light reactions provide to the Calvin cycle. |
3. | The light reactions supply oxygen to the Calvin cycle. |
4. | Calvin cycle is in no way dependent on the light reactions. |
