2. total darkness
3. absence of water
4. presence of ferricyanide
Which one of the following categories of organisms do not evolve oxygen during photosynthesis?
1. | Red algae |
2. | Photosynthetic bacteria |
3. | C4 plants with Kranz anatomy |
4. | Blue green algae |
Which of the following is the characteristic of PS-I?
1. | It is activate only upto 680 nm of light. |
2. | The reaction centre of PS-I is P680 . |
3. | PS-I is reduced by the electrons released in photolysis of water. |

Which of the following statements is correct?
1. | Photorespiration is useful process. |
2. | C4 plants are more efficient than C3 plants. |
3. | C4 plants are less efficient than C3 plants. |
4. | Photorespiration is absent in C3 plants but present in C4 plants. |
Photorespiration shows formation of
1. | sugar but not ATP |
2. | ATP but not sugar |
3. | both ATP and sugar |
4. | neither ATP nor sugar |
Kranz anatomy is usually associated with
1. | C3 plants |
2. | C4 plants |
3. | CAM plants |
4. | C3-C4 intermediate plants. |
C4 plants have better productivity because
1. | C4 plants absorb more light |
2. | C4 plants absorb more CO2 |
3. | C4 plants does not carry photorespiration |
4. | C4 plants have more amount of RuBisCO. |
