Water affects the process of photosynthesis in higher plants because:
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.

3. Both I and II 4. Neither I nor II

In the Z-scheme, transfer of electrons starts from:
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+.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R): 
Assertion (A): Cyclic photophosphorylation results in the synthesis of ATP but not of NADPH + H+.
Reason (R): The excited electron does not pass on to NADP+ but is cycled back to the PS I complex through the electron transport chain.
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.
