Photochemical reactions in the chloroplasts are directly involved in theA. formation of phosphoglyceric acidB. fixation of carbon dioxideC. synthesis of glucose and starchD. photolysis of water and phosphorylation of ADP to ATP |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D `CO_(2)` is fixed in the stroma of the chloroplast leading to the synthesis of PGA from which glyceraldehyde phosphate is formed. From glyceraldehyde phosphate, sugar and starch are formed. All these do not require light. However, photolysis of water and phosphorylation of ADP to ATP requires light energy. |
