  • question_answer
    Read the following four statements. A, B, C and D and select die right option having both correct statements. [AIPMT (M) 2010] A. Z secheme of light reaction takes place in presence of PS-I only. B. Only PS-I is functional in cyclic photophosphorylation. C. Cyclic photophosphorylation results into synthesis of ATP and \[NADP{{H}_{2}}.\] D. Stroma lamellae lack PS-II as well as NADP.

    A) B and D

    B) A and B

    C) B and C

    D) C and D

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [A] Cyclic photophosphorylation is performed by PS-I only. In this process, an electron expelled by the excited photocentre, ie, \[{{\text{P}}_{\text{700}}}\]is returned to it after passing through a series of electron carriers. PS-I is located on both the non-appressed part of grana thylakoids as well as stroma thylakoids, while PS-II is located in _the appressed part of grana thylakoids only, stroma thylakoids lack PS-II.
