Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

An electron transport system (ETS) or electron transport chain (ETC) is a series of coenzymes and cytochromes that take part in the passage of electrons from one carrier to another and to its ultimate acceptor. The various components of ETS are arranged in five kinds of complexes, arranged in a definite sequence in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

So the correct option is C.

Cyclic photophosphorylation takes place in the thylakoid which lacks:

  1. Electron transport system

  2. Enzyme FNR(ferredoxin NADP reductase )

  3. Lumen

  4. Photosystem with absorption peak $700nm$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Cyclic Photophosphorylation is the process, in which systems (like prokaryotes), just accomplishes the ADP to ATP for immediate energy for the cells. This type of photophosphorylation usually occurs in the thylakoid membrane. So the correct option is ' Electron transport system'.

A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct sequence is: 1. Absorption of light energy (2), 2. Transfer of light energy (4), 3. Charge separation (1), 4. Ejection of electron (3).

Multiple choice botany photosynthesis electron transport system modern concept of photosynthesis photosynthesis in higher plants
Which range of wavelength (in nm) is called photosynthetically active radiation (PAR)? 
  1. 100-390

  2. 390-430

  3. 400-700

  4. 760-10,000

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Sunlight or solar radiations reaching the earth have wavelength between 300 nm (in the ultra volt rang) to 2600 nm (in the infa-red range). Part of the spectrum used in photosynthesis has a wavelength between 400-700 nm, it is called as photo synthetically active radiation (PAR).
