Assuming that 7,300 calories are required for the synthesis of each mole of ATP, calculate the percentage conservation efficiency for 38 ATPs based on an energy release of 686,000 calories.
In addition, the proportion of each electron carrier (ferredoxin, NADP+,plastoquinone, cyt b559, cyt f, plastocyanin and cyt b6) that is oxidized duringphotosynthesis can be measured spectrophotometrically. From the data given below,identify each column with one of the electron carriers listed above, and give a shortreason to justify each choice. One of the electron carriers might not be represented by aletter. There may be ambiguity, where you can’t narrow down one letter between twosubstances – that’s fine, just explain why you can’t tell. The number shows the proportion of the lettered electron carrier that is oxidized; that is0.0 means none of that carrier is oxidized, and 1.0 means that it is fully oxidized.

Under controlled conditions, a transpiration experiment was conducted using two different plant species, A and B. Each plant species was exposed to a low-humidity environment and a high-humidity environment with all other conditions kept the same. The transpiration rate was measured over a period of one hour. The data was graphed as shown below. A B transpiration rate (pl/cm²min) с 0.2 0.18 0.16 0.14 0.12 0.1 0.08 0.06 A bar graph of the transpiration rates of two plants under different humid conditions D 0.04 0.02 low humidity 40% In order to see the effect the change in humidity had on the transpiration rate, what would be a proper con trol to add to the study? high humidity 80% running the same experiment multiple times to collect additional data adding more water to the original plants and running the experiment again grow another set of plants at normal humidity growing more plants at 0% and 100% humidity Species A Species B

In cyclic photophosphorylation, it is estimated that two electrons must be passed through the cycle to pump enough protons to gener- ate one ATP. Assuming that the AG for hydrolysis of ATP under con- ditions existing in the chloroplast is about –50 kJ/mol, what is the corresponding percent efficiency of cyclic photophosphorylation, using light of 700 nm?
