Photosystem I is directly associated with:
1. | passing electrons to plastoquinone |
2. | receiving electrons from plastocyanin |
3. | P680 as the chlorophyll a reaction-center |
4. | removal of electrons and protons from water |
Identify the correct statements regarding RuBisCO:
I: | It catalyzes the carboxylation of \(CO_2\) to ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate. |
II: | It initiates photorespiration when the \(CO_2/O_2\) ratio is low. |
III: | It catalyzes the reduction of two molecules of PGAL to form glucose. |
1. | I and II only | 2. | I and III only |
3. | II and III only | 4. | I, II and III |
The products of non-cyclic photophosphorylation include:
1. | ATP and P700 | 2. | ATP and NADPH |
3. | ADP and NADP | 4. | P700 and P680 |
The and photosynthesis pathways are so called because the initial carbon fixation product in them are respectively:
1. | pyruvate; malate |
2. | malate; pyruvate |
3. | 3-phosphoglycerate; oxaloacetic acid |
4. | glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; phospho-enol-pyruvate (PEP) |
The extra ATP required [as compared to NADPH] in Calvin cycle comes from:
1. | photosystem II | 2. | photosystem I |
3. | cyclic electron flow | 4. | non cyclic electron flow |
In the given simplified diagram of the Calvin Cycle,
ATP is utilized at points:
1. A and B only
2. A and C only
3. B and C only
4. A, B and C
Light dependent reactions are so called because they require light:
1. | to provide electrons for the process |
2. | to split the water molecule |
3. | to impart energy to the electrons in the reaction center |
4. | to hydrolyse ATP molecules |
The chronological order of organelles involved in the photorespiration cycle is:
1. | chloroplasts, leaf peroxisomes and mitochondria |
2. | chloroplasts, mitochondria and leaf peroxisomes |
3. | mitochondria, chloroplasts, and leaf peroxisomes |
4. | mitochondria, leaf peroxisomes and chloroplasts |
The space of thylakoid is separated from the stroma by a membrane. If the membrane capability to maintain an environment in the thylakoid space distinct from stroma is compromised, the process most directly affected would be:
1. | the splitting of water |
2. | the absorption of photons by chlorophyll |
3. | the reduction of NADP+ |
4. | the synthesis of ATP |
In the diagram showing relation between Calvin cycle and Photorespiration the molecule labeled X can be:
1. Oxygen
2. Ammonia
3. Nitric oxide
4. Hydrogen sulfide
