Q

Which of the following is the main difference between cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation?

  • They use different electron acceptors
  • Only photosystem I is used during the cyclic process
  • Noncyclic photophosphorylation occurs in the stroma
  • Noncyclic photophosphorylation does not produce ATP
A

Only photo system I is used during the noncylic process

Q

In the light dependent reactions, when light strikes the pigments (P700 or P680) what is the immediate result?

  • excited electrons are passed to electron acceptors
  • electrons are fused to form ATP
  • glucose is produced
  • carbon fixation occurs
A

Excited electrons are passed to electron acceptors

Q

In the calvin cycle, more ATP than NADPH is used, how is this difference made up?

  • the cyclic pathway creates more ATP
  • the calvin cycle occurs half as often as the light dependent reaction
  • additional ATP is created from glucose
  • excess NADPH is reused in the light reaction
A

The cyclic pathway creates more ATP
