In plants and algae, _____ is the source of the electrons needed for photosynthesis. NADPH H2O O2 CO2 H+

H2O

How would subjecting a CAM plant at night to normal daytime temperatures affect its water use efficiency (CO<sub>2</sub> captured /H<sub>2</sub>O lost)? CO<sub>2</sub> capture would increase, due to a temperature-induced increase in PEP carboxylase activity, which is enough to increase water use efficiency. Water use efficiency would decrease due to an increasing concentration gradient for diffusion of water out of the leaf at night. Water use efficiency would increase due to more rapid diffusion of CO<sub>2 </sub>during the day. CO<sub>2</sub> capture would decrease due to temperature inhibition of rubisco, which would decrease water use efficiency.

Water use efficiency would decrease due to an increasing concentration gradient for diffusion of water out of the leaf at night.

Which of the following are produced directly as a result of the movement of electrons through the photosynthetic electron transport chain? water and carbohydrates oxygen and carbohydrates carbohydrates and ATP ATP and NADPH

ATP and NADPH

Suppose you discovered a mutant strain of spinach in which the thylakoid membranes were slightly permeable to protons, thus allowing a slow leakage. (Remember that normal membranes are not permeable to protons at all.) How might this defect affect the yield of ATP and/or NADPH from the light reactions? NADPH yield would decrease. ATP yield would increase. There would be no change. NADPH yield would increase. ATP yield would decrease.

ATP yield would decrease

Why is the photosynthetic electron transport chain sometimes referred to as the "Z scheme"? Because the energy level of the electrons increases and decreases and increases and decreases. Because the electrons zigzag through the antenna chlorophyll molecule to get to the reaction center. Because the electrons zigzag through the electron transport chain as they travel from one photosystem to another in the thylakoid membrane.

Because the energy level of the electrons increases and decreases and increases and decreases.
