In a chloroplast the highest number of protons are found in
1. lumen of thylakoids
2. inter membrane space
3. antenna complex
4. Stroma
The oxygen evolved during photosynthesis comes from water molecules. Which one of the following pairs of elements involved in this reaction?
1. Manganese and chlorine
2. Manganese and potassium
3. Manganese and molybdenum
4. Magnesium and chlorine
In photosynthesis, the light-independent reactions take place at
1. thylakoid lumen
2. photosystem l
3. photosystem ll
4. stromal matrix
The structures that are formed by stacking of organised flattened membranous sacs in the chloroplasts are
1. cristae
2. grana
3. stroma lamellae
4. stroma
Anoxygenic photosynthesis is characteristic of
(1) Rhodospirillum
(2) Spirogyra
(3) Chlamydomonas
(4) Ulva
The correct sequence of cell organelles during photorespiration is
(1) chloroplast-Golgi bodies-mitochondria
(2) chloroplast-rough endoplasmic reticulum-dictyosomes
(3) chloroplast-peroxisome-mitochondria
(4) chloroplast-vacuole-peroxisome
PGA as the first CO2 fixation was discovered in the photosynthesis of
(1) bryophyte
(2) gymnosperm
(3) angiosperm
(4) algae
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
Cyclic-photophosphorylation results in the formation of
1. NADPH
2. ATP and NADPH
3. ATP, NADPH and O2
4. ATP
THe C4 -plants are photosynthetically more efficient than C3 -plants because
(1) the CO2 compensation point is more
(2) CO2 generated during photorespiration is trapped and recycled through PEP carboxylase
(3) the CO2 efflux is not prevented
(4) they have more chloroplasts.
