In Kranz anatomy, the bundle sheath cells have:
| 1. | thick walls, many intercellular spaces and few chloroplasts |
| 2. | thin walls, many intercellular spaces and no chloroplasts |
| 3. | thick walls, no intercellular spaces and a large number of chloroplasts |
| 4. | thin walls, no intercellular spaces and several chloroplasts |
Chemiosmotic theory of ATP synthesis in the chloroplasts and mitochondria is based on:
1. Membrane potential
2. Accumulation of K ions
3. Proton gradient
4. Accumulation of Na ions
Photosynthesis in C4 plants is relatively less limited by atmospheric levels because:
| 1. | The primary fixation of CO2 is mediated via PEP carboxylase |
| 2. | Effective pumping of CO2 into bundle sheath cells |
| 3. | Four carbon acids are the primary initial CO2 fixation products |
| 4. | RuBisCO in C4 plants has a higher affinity for CO2 |
In C3 plants, the first stable product of photosynthesis during the dark reaction is:
1. Oxaloacetic acid
2. 3-phosphoglyceric acid
3. Phosphoglyceraldehyde
4. Malic acid
Photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) represents the following range of wavelengths:
1. 450-950 nm
2. 340-450 nm
3. 400-700 nm
4. 500-600 nm
The first step for initiation of photosynthesis will be:
| 1. | Photolysis of water |
| 2. | Excitement of chlorophyll molecule due to absorption of light |
| 3. | ATP formation |
| 4. | Glucose formation |
For the synthesis of one glucose molecule, the Calvin cycle operates for:
| 1. | 2 times | 2. | 4 times |
| 3. | 6 times | 4. | 8 times |
