cyclic photophosphorylation Flashcards
1
Q
what the only thing photophosphorylation uses?
A
only uses PSI
2
Q
why is it called cyclic
A
because the electrons from the chlorophlyll molecule arent passed onto NADP, but are passed back to PSI via electron carriers, this means the electrons are recycled through the system can be repeatedly be used to flow through the PSI
3
Q
does this process produce anything
A
no it doesent produce NADP or o2, it only produces small bits of ATP
