| A: | The membrane system is the site for enzymatic reactions that synthesise sugar, which in turn forms starch. |
| B: | Stroma is responsible for trapping the light energy and also for the synthesis of ATP and NADPH. |
| Assertion (A): | The protons and oxygen formed by the splitting of water during oxygenic photosynthesis is higher plants are released in the lumen of the thylakoid. |
| Reason (R): | The water splitting complex is associated with the PS II, which itself is physically located on the inner side of the membrane of the thylakoid. |
