MCQ
Photophosphorylation is the
  • A
    Formation of $ADP$ in the presence of light
  • B
    Formation of $ATP$ in the presence of chemicals
  • Formation of $ATP$ in the presence of light
  • D
    Formation of $ATP$ in the presence of reducing agents

Answer

Correct option: C.
Formation of $ATP$ in the presence of light
c
Photophosphorylation is the formation of $ATP$ from $ADP$ and inorganic phosphate in the presence of light. When the two phosphates work in a series. (first $PS-II$ and then $PS-I$) then non-cyclic photophosphorylation occurs. The two photosystems are connected through an electron transport chain. Both $ATP$ and $NADPH$ are synthesised by this kind of electron flow
