Chemiosmotic theory of ATP synthesis, in the chloroplast and mitochondria, is based on :
proton gradient
membrane potential
accumulation of K ions
accumulation of Na ions
Photorespiration in C3 -plants starts from :
glycine
glycerate
phosphoglycolate
phosphoglycerate
C.
phosphoglycolate
Photorespiration in C3 -plants starts from phosphoglycolate. Phosphoglycolate is formed in chloroplast which represents the source of carbon dioxide released in photorespiration. Its phosphate group is first hydrolyzed away by a specific phosphatase found in chloroplasts of C3 -plants releasing Pi and glycolic acid. The glycolate then moves out of chloroplasts into the adjacent peroxisomes.
Which of the following is photophosphorylation?
Production of ATP from ADP
Production of NADP
Synthesis of ADP from ATP
Production of PGA
