Which of the following statements is TRUE?
Select one:
a. The immediate product of the light energy absorbed by the P680 reaction center is used to produce NADPH.
b. In cyclic photophosphorylation, the chlorophyll is reduced by electrons liberated from water molecules.
c. The O2 gas produced during photosynthesis is derived from CO2.
d. In noncyclic photophosphorylation, electrons from water are used directly for the reduction of P700.
e. All of the statements are false.
2.)
A.) Explain how electron transfer leads to ATP biosynthesis in the light reactions of photosynthesis. You must give details about how electron flow builds a pH gradient and a description of the compartments in the chloroplast in relation to pH. Also, compare the ETC of the mitochondrion with the ETC of the light reactions for both the source and destination for electrons.
B.) Would ATP biosynthesis happen if ionophores, which would create holes in the thylakoid membrane and allow uncontrolled passage of charged molecules such as protons between compartments, are provided to the chloroplast? Why or why not?
C.) How would you modify Complex I of the electron transport chain to decrease ATP yield from Step 3 of β-oxidation? As part of this, you must explain why there is a difference in ATP yield between NADH and FADH 2 AND give a specific change to the ETC that would decrease ATP yield from Step 3
Which of the following is true of chloroplastic ATP:
Select one:
a.
it is made in the Calvin cycle and consumed in the light reactions
b.
it is used during photosynthesis, S assimilation, and N assimilation
c.
it does not leave the chloroplast, and is used to breakdown molecules
d.
it is made during photosynthesis and S assimilation
e.
it leaves the chloroplast, and is consumed in respiration and N assimilation
