Which of the following replaces the electrons removed from the reaction center chlorophyll-A molecule of the photosystem I in non-cyclic photophosphorylation?
1. The light harvesting complex of PS-I
2. Water
3. PS-II
4. NADPH
Consider the given two statements
Assertion (A): | In C4 plants, photorespiration does not occur. |
Reason (R): | Rubisco in C4 plants does not have oxygenase activity. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True, (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False, (R) is False. |
Assertion (A): | Chemiosmosis in chloroplasts is crucial for ATP synthesis. |
Reason (R): | The movement of protons across the thylakoid membrane from the stroma into the thylakoid lumen drives ATP synthesis |
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 (R) |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
1. | C3 plants show a higher rate of photosynthesis than C4 plants at low CO2 concentration |
2. | C3 plants show a higher rate of photosynthesis than C4 plants at high CO2 concentration |
3. | C3 plants' photosynthesis rate decreases at higher CO2 concentrations, unlike C4 plants |
4. | C4 plants are more efficient in photosynthesis at lower CO2 concentrations |
A: | C3 |
B: | C4 |
I: | C3 plants use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide directly into a three-carbon compound, 3-phosphoglycerate. |
II: | C4 plants conduct their light-dependent reactions and Calvin cycle in the same cell type. |
III: | Photosystem I primarily functions to generate ATP, while Photosystem II primarily functions to generate NADPH. |
IV: | C4 plants separate carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle into two different types of cells to reduce photorespiration. |
V: | Light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes and involve the absorption of light to produce ATP and NADPH. |
VI: | In C3 plants, photorespiration is promoted by high concentrations of oxygen, especially under high light intensity and temperature conditions. |
Assertion (A): | The effect of water as a factor is more indirect rather than direct on photosynthesis. |
Reason (R): | Water is one of the reactants in the light reaction. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
1. | 0 | 2. | 2 |
3. | 3 | 4. | 4 |
