1. | Light energy excites electrons in the thylakoid membrane electron transport chain. |
2. | Photons are passed along to a reaction-center chlorophyll. |
3. | The P680 chlorophyll donates a pair of protons to NADP+, which is thus converted to NADPH. |
4. | The electron vacancies in P680+ are filled by electrons derived from water. |
Which of the following statements best represents the relationships between the light reactions and the Calvin cycle?
1. | The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the Calvin cycle, and the cycle returns ADP, Pi, and NADP+ to the light reactions. |
2. | The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the carbon fixation step of the Calvin cycle, and the cycle provides water and electrons to the light reactions. |
3. | The light reactions supply the Calvin cycle with CO2 to produce sugars, and the Calvin cycle supplies the light reactions with sugars to produce ATP. |
4. | The light reactions provide the Calvin cycle with oxygen for electron flow, and the Calvin cycle provides the light reactions with water to split. |
Assertion (A): | Six molecules of CO2 and twelve molecules of NADPH + H+ and 18 ATP are used to form one hexose molecules. |
Reason (R): | Light reaction results in formation of ATP and NADPH2. |
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). |

A: | Peroxisomes participate in photorespiration in C4 plants. |
R: | Catalase enzyme is present in high concentration in peroxisomes |
1. | If both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (1) |
2. | If both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion, then mark (2) |

4. | If both Assertion and Reason are false statements, then mark (4) |
Assertion (A): | For evolution of O2 in photosynthesis, PS-II is required. |
Reason (R): | PS II is reduced by pulling electrons from water due to which photolysis of H2O occurs. |
