Question
Chapter 30.SE, Problem 36AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observation that photolysis of cis-cyclobutene yields cis-cyclododecaen-7-yne but photolysis of trans-cyclobutene yields trans-cyclododecaen-7-yne is to be explained by identifying the type and stereochemistry of the pericyclic reaction involved.
Concept introduction:
An electrocyclic reaction involves the cyclization of a conjugated acyclic system. These reactions are reversible and are highly stereospecific.
In elecrocyclic reactions involving even number of electron pairs, a thermal reaction occurs in conrotatory manner and a photochemical reaction occurs in disrotatory manner.
In elecrocyclic reactions involving odd number of electron pairs, a thermal reaction occurs in disrotatory manner and a photochemical reaction occurs in conrotatory manner.

Please help me answer this question. I don't understand how or even if this can happen in a single transformation. Please provide a detailed explanation and a drawing showing how it can happen in a single transformation.
Add the necessary reagents and reaction conditions above and below the arrow in this organic reaction. If the products can't be made from the reactant with a single transformation, check the box under the drawing area instead.
2) Draw the correct chemical structure (using line-angle drawings / "line structures") from their
given IUPAC name:
a.
(E)-1-chloro-3,4,5-trimethylhex-2-ene
b. (Z)-4,5,7-trimethyloct-4-en-2-ol
C. (2E,6Z)-4-methylocta-2,6-diene
