  • Lavosier


B.

Engelmann

Engelmann studied the effect of different region of the visible spectrum on the rate of photosynthesis of different algae. The amount of oxygen (O2 ) released was found to be maximum in blue and red absorption bands of chlorophyll.

In CAM plants, CO2 acceptor is

  • RuBP

  • PEP

  • OAA

  • PGA


DCMU 

  • inhibits PS- I

  • inhibits PS- II

  • destroy chloroplast

  • inhibits oxidative phosphorylation


Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is located in

  • grana

  • pyrenoid

Photosynthesis in C4 plants is relatively less limited by atmospheric CO2 levels because

  • four carbon acids are the primary initial CO2 fixation products

  • the primary fixation of CO2 is mediated via PEP carboxylase

  • effective pumping of CO2 into bundle sheath cells

  • RUBISCO in CO4 plants has higher affinity for CO2
