A chromatographic separation of the leaf pigments shows that the colour that we see in leaves is not due to a single pigment but due to four pigments. The colours, bright or blue green, in the chromatogram are associated with:
1. Chlorophyll a 2. Chlorophyll b
3. Xanthophylls 4. Carotenoids

Consider the two statements:
Assertion (A): Higher rate of photosynthesis is seen when plants are provided with blue and red regions
of wavelengths of visible light.
Reason (R): There is maximum absorption by chlorophyll a in the blue and the red regions of the visible light.
 
1. (A) is True but (R) is False
2. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) explains (A)
3. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not explain (A)

Consider the two statements:
Assertion (A): Cyclic photophosphorylation results only in the synthesis of ATP, but not of NADPH + H+.
Reason (R): Cyclic photophosphorylation occurs only when light of wavelengths beyond 680 nm are available for excitation.
 
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 but (R) does not correctly explain (A)

Consider the two statements:
Assertion(A): The protons or hydrogen ions that are produced by the splitting of water accumulate within the lumen of the thylakoids.
Reason(R): The primary accepter of electrons, which is located towards the outer side of the membrane, transfers its electron not to an electron carrier but to an H carrier.

The ATP synthase enzyme consists of two parts where:
I: CF0 is embedded in the thylakoid membrane and forms a transmembrane channel that carries out facilitated diffusion of protons across the membrane.
II: CF1 protrudes on the outer surface of the thylakoid membrane on the side that faces the stroma.
