1. | the PS II uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally downhill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
2. | the PS II downhill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally uphill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
3. | the PS I uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS II, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally downhill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
4. | the PS I downhill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS II, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally uphill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |

I: | Water stress can cause the stomata to close, hence, reducing the carbon dioxide availability. |
II: | Water stress also makes leaves wilt, thus, reducing the surface area of the leaves and their metabolic activity as well. |
1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |

Though chlorophyll a is the major pigment responsible for trapping light, other thylakoid pigments called accessory pigments are also involved. The accessory pigments:
I: | Include xanthophylls and carotenoids but not chlorophyll b |
II: | Absorb light and transfer electrons to chlorophyll a |
III: | Enable a wider range of wavelength of incoming light to be reflected by green leaves |
IV: | Make Chlorophyll a more prone to photo-oxidation |
The incorrect statements include:
1. | Only I and II | 2. | Only III and IV |
3. | Only I, III and IV | 4. | I, II, III and IV |
I: | is responsible for trapping the light energy. |
II: | is responsible for the synthesis of ATP and NADPH. |
1. | Only I is correct |
2. | Only II is correct |
3. | Both I and II are correct |
4. | Both I and II are incorrect |
