Which of the following options best explains how less chlorophyll would affect the proces of photosynthesis in plants? 6. A. It would increase the rate of photosynthesis because of the increased production of food. B. It would limit the amount water plants are able to take in, resulting in a slower rate of photosynthesis. C. It would increase the production of oxygen because the plant would need to work hard to feed themselves. С. D. It would limit the amount of light absorbed by the plant and decrease the amount of food the plant is able to produce for itself.
The role of photosystem 1 and photosystem 2 in the process of photosynthesis is to   a. absorb sunlight and distribute the energy as heat  b. absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons c. form ATP as hydrogen ions cross the thylakoid membrane d. transfer electrons to form NADPH
Photosynthesis A. is the only energy-generating pathway for plants, cyanobacteria, and algae. B. consist two stages: light-dependent stage which fix CO₂, light-independent stage which generate glucose. C. can capture and convert energy from light to chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. D. oxidize organic carbon molecule to CO₂, while reduce water to oxygen.
