Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The photosynthesis is required by the plant to harvest the light energy from the sunlight and convert the atmospheric carbon dioxide into a usable form of carbohydrates. The carbohydrate synthesized by the plant is glucose that is stored in the form of starch.

Which of the following scenarios happens during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? Oxygen gas is produced in the thylakoid lumen by the oxidation of water by photosystem I.   Ferrodoxin and NADP+ reductase participates in the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH.   Carbon dioxide enters the plants via stomata.   Rubisco attaches three molecules of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) to one molecule of carbon dioxide.
Place the following steps for one turn of the Calvin Cycle in the correct order.                                                                 Carbon fixation                                                                 Production of a 3-Carbon sugar                                                                 Carbon dioxide (CO2) is taken into the plant.                                                                 Carbon reduction                                                                 Regeneration of RuBP (ribulose bisphosphate)
C4 plants differ from C3 plants because C3 plants while C4 plants O gain CO2 via photorespiration; lose CO2 via photorespiration have mesophyll cells that fix CO2 and contain the Calvin cycle; have mesophyll cells that fix CO2 and bundle sheath cells that contain the Calvin cycle concentrate CO2 near rubisco; cannot concentrate CO2 near rubisco can concentrate the CO2 by regulating the stomata closure; can concentrate CO2 at night produce a four-carbon intermediate after CO2 fixation; produce a three-carbon intermediate after CO2 fixation
