Question

In a scientific experiment, thylakoids put in an acidic solution and then transfered to a basic solution were able to produce ATP. This was due to what process?

 

Question 40 options:

 

Photosystem I

 

Chemiosmosis

 

calvin cycle

 

Photosystem II

Expert Solution
Step 1

The light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis contains two pigments. The photosystem I and photosystem II that absorb the light at a wavelength of 700 nanometers and 680 nanometers. The electron moves from photosystem II to I in a zigzag motion to finally produce ATP and NADPH. The light reaction uses the energetic photons to excite the reaction center of the chlorophyll to provide energy to the electrons for transfer. The electrons transfer through a series of proteins and pigments to eventually synthesize two energy-rich molecules called ATP (adenine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-hydrogen).
