| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
| Assertion (A): | The Calvin cycle actually occurs only in the dark or during night time. |
| Reason (R): | The Calvin cycle is also called as ‘Dark’ reactions. |
| 1. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |

| I: | The component CF0 is embedded in the thylakoid membrane. |
| II: | The component CF1 protrudes on the outer surface of the thylakoid membrane on the side that faces the stroma. |
| 1. | Only I is correct |
| 2. | Only II is correct |
| 3. | Both I and II are correct |
| 4. | Both I and II are incorrect |
| Assertion (A): | The cyclic flow hence, results only in the synthesis of ATP, but not of NADPH + H+. |
| Reason (R): | The excited electron does not pass on to NADP+ but is cycled back to the PS I complex through the electron transport chain. |
