Assertion (A): | Carboxylation is the most crucial step of Calvin cycle. |
Reason (R): | This reaction is catalysed by the enzyme RuBP carboxylase which results in the formation of two molecules of 3-PGA |
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. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
1. | To determine the action spectrum |
2. | To determine the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll. |
3. | To detect the sites of oxygen (O2) evolution. |
4. | To detect the oxidizing species in the photosynthetic reactants. |
1. | Increase in rate of photosynthesis |
2. | Decrease in rate of photosynthesis |
3. | Firstly, decrease in rate of photosynthesis then increase |
4. | No photosynthesis takes place |
1. | Serves as major primary pigment in the photosynthetic machinery |
2. | Forms the reaction center only |
3. | Prevent reaction center from photo-oxidation |
4. | Show blue color in chromatogram |
