Question 7 of 13

1

(Choose all correct).
Engelman's experiment:

Select one or more of the following:

  • Used algae.

  • Used bean plants.

Explanation

Question 8 of 13

1

Where would you find the light harvesting pigment cholorphyll?

Select one of the following:

  • In the stroma of chloroplasts.

  • In the thylakoid space.

  • In the thylakoid membrane.

Explanation

Question 9 of 13

1

Choose the correct statement.

Select one of the following:

  • Photosystems are part of light-harvesting complexes.

  • A reaction centre complex is composed of a photosystem and a light-harvesting complex.

  • The light-harvesting complex is a protein which sits in the thylakoid membrane.

  • The reaction centre complex surrounds the light-harvesting complex.

Explanation

Question 10 of 13

1

Order these steps of energy transfer from photons to chloroplasts:
An electron from the special chlorophyll in the reaction centre complex is excited.
Energy is passed along the chain of chlorophyll molecules.
Photon reaches light harvesting complexes/chlorophyll molecules.
The electron is transferred to the primary electron acceptor in the reaction centre complex.

Question 11 of 13

1

Choose the incorrect statement about the photosynthetic electron transport chain.

Select one of the following:

  • Photosystem II precedes Photosystem I.

  • Photosystem II provides two electrons to move H+ down it's gradient through the Cytochrome complex.

  • Photosystem I provides electrons for NADP+ to become NADPH via NADP+ reductase.

  • Photosystem II splits water and releases oxygen.

  • ATP synthase uses energy from H+ moving down its gradient to synthesize ATP.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 13 of 13

1

Fill in the steps of the Calvin Cycle.
1. : Three CO2 react with three 5-carbon compounds to make three 6-carbon compounds. This involves a protein known as .
2. : ATP and 6 NADPH are used to reduce three CO2 to three 3-carbon compounds.
