| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which of the following components is not used by both plants and cyanobacteria to carry out photosynthesis? | Chloroplasts |
| What two main products result from photosynthesis? | sugars/carbohydrates and oxygen |
| In which compartment of the plant cell do the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place? | Stroma |
| Which statement about thylakoids in eukaryotes is not correct? | Thylakoids exist as a maze of folded membranes. |
| Predict the end result if a chloroplast’s light-independent enzymes developed a mutation that prevented them from activating in response to light. | Carbon dioxide depletion |
| How are the NADPH and G3P molecules made during photosynthesis similar? | They are both end products of photosynthesis. |
| Which of the following structures is not a component of a photosystem? | ATP synthase |
| How many photons does it take to fully reduce one molecule of NADP+ to NADPH? | 8 |
| Which complex is not involved in the establishment of conditions for ATP synthesis? | cytochrome complex |
| From which component of the light-dependent reactions does NADPH form most directly? | photosystem I A C B |
| Plants containing only chlorophyll b are exposed to radiation with the following wavelengths: 10nm (x-rays), 450nm (blue light), 670nm (red light), and 800nm (infrared light). Which plants harness the most energy for photosynthesis? | Blue light irradiated plants |
| Which molecule must enter the Calvin cycle continually for the light-independent reactions to take place? | CO2 |
| Which order of molecular conversions is correct for the Calvin cycle? | RuBP + CO2 → [RuBisCO] 3-PGA → G3P |
| Where in eukaryotic cells does the Calvin cycle take place? | chloroplast stroma |
| Which statement correctly describes carbon fixation? | the conversion of CO2 into an organic compound |
| If four molecules of carbon dioxide enter the Calvin cycle (four “turns” of the cycle), how many G3P molecules are produced and how many are exported? | 8 G3P made, 4 G3P exported |
