Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | The reaction center of PS I is known as P700 and the reaction center of PS II is known as P680. |
Reason (R): | PS I functions first in the light reactions. |
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. |

Assertion: For every three molecules of that enter the Calvin cycle, six molecules of G3P are formed but only one molecule of G3P can be counted as a net gain.
Reason: The rest are required to complete the cycle.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

Assertion: The enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase[PGK] is present in all living organisms.
Reason: In the Calvin cycle, PGK catalyzes the phosphorylation of 3-PG, producing 1,3-BPG and ADP, as part of the reactions that regenerate ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate.
