Assertion (A): | Chlorophyll a is the primary pigment involved in photosynthesis. |
Reason (R): | Chlorophyll a initiates the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A) |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Statement I: | The membrane system is the site of enzymatic reactions leading to synthesis of sugar. |
Statement II: | The stroma is responsible for trapping the light energy and also for the synthesis of ATP and NADPH. |
1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect |
3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
4. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |
1. | The action spectrum shows wavelengths used for oxygen evolution, while the absorption spectrum shows wavelengths that chlorophyll absorbs. |
2. | The action spectrum measures the rate of photosynthesis at different wavelengths, while the absorption spectrum measures the rate of respiration. |
3. | Both spectrums measure the same wavelengths of light used in photosynthesis. |
4. | The absorption spectrum indicates the overall health of the plant, whereas the action spectrum does not. |
I: | When the intensity of sunshine is minimum, the chloroplasts in a mesophyll cell align themseleve parallel to wall of mesophyll cells. |
II: | Thylakoids are membrane-bound compartments inside chloroplasts and cynobacteria. |
1. | Both I and II are correct |
2. | Both I and II are incorrect |
3. | I is correct |
4. | II is correct |
