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.

You add a water-soluble inhibitor of photosynthesis to the roots of a plant. The plant is actively transpiring. You are surprised that photosynthesis is not reduced. This is most likely due to:

1. Xylem vessels being dead at maturity

2. Inability of roots to take up water-soluble chemical

3. Endodermis

4. Transport of the inhibitor by phloem

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

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.
