In Kranz anatomy, the bundle sheath cells have:
| 1. | thick walls, many intercellular spaces and few chloroplasts |
| 2. | thin walls, many intercellular spaces and no chloroplasts |
| 3. | thick walls, no intercellular spaces and a large number of chloroplasts |
| 4. | thin walls, no intercellular spaces and several chloroplasts |
Chemiosmotic theory of ATP synthesis in the chloroplasts and mitochondria is based on:
1. Membrane potential
