cyclic photophosphorylation will not occur in the absence of
Answers
Answer:
Cyclic photophosphorylation involves photosystem I complex which contains a single molecule of chlorophyll a or P700 which absorbs visible light near 700 nm wavelength. This single molecule is the reaction centre for PS I to which all the accessory pigment molecules transfer their energy. The accessory pigments include carotenoids and xanthophylls. Since chlorophyll a is the primary pigment , cyclic photophosphorylation will not take place in its absence.
