What process or processes produce the proton gradient that powers ATP synthase in chloroplasts? (Select ALL correct answers) Protons are produced when water is split Protons are produced when NADP+ is reduced A proton pump uses light energy to move protons into the thylakoid space A proton pump uses energy from the electron transport chain to move protons into the thylakoid space
In the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis, what specifically happens in the electron transport chain between Photosystem II and Photosystem I? The excited electron accepted by the primary acceptor in Photosystem II is transferred to pheophytin and plastoquinones, then to cytochrome complex, and finally to plastocyanin. Plastocyanin then transfers the electron to the P700 in the reaction center complex of Photosystem I. The excited electron accepted by the primary acceptor in Photosystem I is transferred to pheophytin and plastoquinones, then to cytochrome complex, and finally to plastocyanin. Plastocyanin then transfers the electron to the P700 in the reaction center complex of Photosystem II. The excited electron accepted by the primary acceptor in Photosystem I is transferred to plastocyanin, then to cytochrome complex, and finally to pheophytin and plastoquinones. Plastoquinone then transfers the electron to the P700 in the reaction center complex of Photosystem II.…
Which of the following correctly sequences the steps of non-cyclic electron transport? * Water is oxidized by the capture of light energy; these excited electrons are passed through the dark reactions, returning to chlorophyll during the final light reactions The ATP and NADPH generated by the reactions of photosystem Il and photosystem I are utilized by the Calvin Cycle to build high energy glucose molecules Electrons donated from water molecules pass through photosystem I then O photosystem II before returning to the chlorophyll molecules, generating ATP in the process Chlorophyll molecules absorb UV radiation exciting electrons which flow through photosystem I, returning to the chlorophyll molecules ) This is a required question
Which of the following defines photorespiration? The metabolic pathway by which most autotrophs use the energy of light to make sugars from carbon dioxide and water The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis Process by which electron flow through electron transfer chains sets up a hydrogen ion gradient that drives ATP formation An inefficient metabolic pathway of producing sugars that occurs when O2 attaches to rubisco
Which of the following is TRUE about CAM photosynthetic pathway? Compared to the C3 and C4 pathways, CAM photosynthesis results in greater transpiration and water loss. O By separating where carbon is initially fixed inside the leaf tissue, CAM plants can better control the gradient of carbon dioxide between the air and their leaves. CAM photosynthesis is more energy efficient than C3 photosynthesis. Compared to C3 and C4 photosynthetic pathways, the rate of CAM photosynthesis is limited.
What is the overall outcome of the light reactions in photosynthesis? NADPH and ATP molecules are produced during the light reactions and are used to power the light independent reactions. NADPH and ATP molecules are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light dependent reactions. Sugar and ATP are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light independent reactions. Carbon dioxide and NADPH are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light dependent reactions.

Explain in detail of the stages of photosynthesis without explaining all the reactions of each pathways, but state the key steps of each pathway. Mention the location where each pathway happens in the plant and lastly make a table of the products formed at the end of the stage (ATPs, NADPHs, and water). Discuss about the oxidation-reduction of various molecules that are a part of these pathways.
