The chemiosmotic coupling hypothesis of oxidative phosphorylation proposes that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is formed because
| 1. | there is a change in the permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane toward adenosine diphosphate (ADP) |
| 2. | high energy bonds are formed in mitochondrial proteins |
| 3. | ADP is pumped out of the matrix into the intermembrane space |
| 4. | a proton gradient forms across the inner membrane |

(a) Z scheme of light reaction takes place in presence of PS I only
(b) Only PS I is functional in cyclic photophosphorylation

(d) Stroma lamellae lack PS II as well as NADP reductase
Options :
1. (c) and (d)
2. (b) and (d)
3. (a) and (b)
4. (b) and (c)
| (a) | (b) | (c) | |
| 1. | Carboxylation | Decarboxylation | Reduction |
| 2. | Decarboxylation | Reduction | Regeneration |
| 3. | Fixation | Transamination | Regeneration |

In Kranz anatomy, the bundle sheath cells have
| 1. | thick walls, many intercellular spaces and few chloroplasts |
| 2. | thin walls, many intercellular spaces and no chloroplasts |
| 3. | thick walls, no intercellular spaces and large number of chloroplasts |
| 4. | thin walls, no intercellular spaces and several chloroplasts |
With reference to factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis, which of the following statements is not correct?
| 1. | Increasing atmospheric concentration up to 0.05 % can enhance fixation rate |
| 2. | plants respond to higher temperatures with enhanced photosynthesis while plants have much lower temperature optimum |
| 3. | Tomato is a greenhouse crop which can be grown in – enriched atmosphere for higher yield |
| 4. | Light saturation for fixation occurs at 10% of full sunlight |
Assertion: Not all organisms use carbon dioxide as a source of carbon atoms to carry out photosynthesis.
Reason: Photoheterotrophs use organic compounds, rather than carbon dioxide, as a source of carbon.
