In Hatch and Slack pathway, the primary CO2 acceptor is -
1. Oxaloacetic acid
2. Phosphoglyceric acid
3. Phosphoenol pyruvate
4. Rubisco
One scientist cultured Cladophora in a suspension of Azotobacter and illuminated the culture by splitting light through a prism. He observed that bacteria accumulated mainly in the region of:
| 1. | Violet and green light | 2. | Indigo and green light |
| 3. | Orange and yellow light | 4. | Blue and red light |
Emerson's enhancement effect and Red drop have been instrumental in the discovery of:
1. Photophosphorylation and non-cyclic electron transport
2. Two photosystems operating simultaneously
3. Photophosphorylation and cyclic electron transport
4. Oxidative phosphorylation
Cyclic -photophosphorylation results in the formation of:
1. NADPH
2. ATP and NADPH
3. ATP, NADPH, and O2
4. ATP
Stroma in the chloroplasts of higher plants contains:
| 1. | light-independent reaction enzymes |
| 2. | light-dependent reaction enzymes |
| 3. | ribosomes |
| 4. | chlorophyll |
C4-plants are more efficient in photosynthesis than C3-plants due to:
| 1. | higher leaf area |
| 2. | presence of larger number of chloroplasts in the leaf cells |
| 3. | presence of thin cuticle |
| 4. | lower rate of photorespiration |
| 1. | secondary growth | 2. | disease resistance |
| 3. | reproduction | 4. | conserving water |
Water-soluble pigments found in plant cell vacuoles are:
| 1. | chlorophylls | 2. | carotenoids |
| 3. | anthocyanins | 4. | xanthophylls |
| 1. | Green sulphur bacteria | 2. | Nostoc |
| 3. | Cycas | 4. | Chara |
| 1. | ATP | 2. | NADH |
| 3. | NADPH | 4. | Oxygen |
