Question

v) NADPH is synthesized in
a) Cyclic photophosphorylation
c) Non-cyclic photophosphorylation
b) Photorespiration
d) Calvin cycle​

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Cyclic photophosphorylation

Explanation:

Under certain conditions, the photoexcited electrons take an alternative path called cyclic electron flow, which uses photosystem I (P700) but not photosystem II (P680). This process produces no NADPH and no O2, but it does make ATP. This is called cyclic photophosphorylation.
