Questions Related to nutrition - food supplying system

Multiple choice biology nutrition - food supplying system site of photosynthesis chloroplast and pigments of photosynthesis pigments action spectrum and absorption spectrum spectrum of electromagnetic radiation

Which cellular part is correctly described

  1. Thylakoids - Flattened membranous sacs forming grana

  2. Centrioles - Sites for active RNA synthesis

  3. Ribosomes - Those in chloroplasts are larger (80 S) while those in cytoplasm are smaller (70 S)

  4. Lysosomes - Opimally active at 8.5 pH.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Thylakoids are indeed flattened membranous sacs that stack to form grana. Centrioles are for spindle formation, not RNA synthesis. Chloroplast ribosomes are 70S, not 80S. Lysosomes are acidic (pH 5).

Match the following

a. Bacteria 1. Synthesis and storage of lipids
b. Sphaerosomes 2. Idiogram
c. Chloroplasts 3. Glycocalyx
d. Karyotype 4. Thylakoids

  1. a-3, b-1, c-4, d-2

  2. a-3, b-1, c-2, d-4

  3. a-4, b-3, c-2, d-1

  4. a-1, b-2, c-3, d-4

  5. a-3, b-2, c-4, d-1.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Bacteria have glycocalyx (a-3). Sphaerosomes are involved in lipid storage (b-1). Chloroplasts contain thylakoids (c-4). Karyotype is represented by an idiogram (d-2).

Consider the following processes.
a. $O _2$ evolution
b. $CO _2$ fixation
c. NADPH formation
d. Chlorophyll biosynthesis.
Which of these do not occur in thylakoids?

  1. $1$ and $2$
  2. $2$ and $3$
  3. $3$ and $4$
  4. $2$ and $4$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Oxygen evolution, NADPH formation, and light reactions occur in the thylakoids. CO2 fixation (Calvin cycle) occurs in the stroma, and chlorophyll biosynthesis involves multiple cellular compartments including plastids and cytoplasm, meaning 2 and 4 do not exclusively occur in thylakoids.

If $^{14}CO _2$ is added to a suspension of photosynthesizing chloroplasts, which of the following will be the first compound to be radioactive?

  1. ATP

  2. NADPH

  3. NADH
  4. $3$-phosphor glycerate
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

In the Calvin cycle, CO2 is first fixed by RuBisCO to form 3-phosphoglycerate, which is the first stable radioactive compound.

Which one of the following options is true in photsynthesis.

  1. $CO _2$ is oxidized and $ H _2O $ is reduced
  2. $H _2O $is oxidized and $CO _2 is reduce d$
  3. Both $CO _2$ and $H _2O$ are reducedd
  4. Both $CO2$ and$ H2O$ are oxidized
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In photosynthesis, water is oxidized to release oxygen, and CO2 is reduced to form glucose.

b. The molecules of ferredoxin-NADP re-educate that generate NADPH are located on the side of the membrane facing stroma.
Which of the statements given is/are correct?

  1. $1$ only
  2. $2$ only
  3. Both $1$ and $2$
  4. Neither $1$ nor $2$

Which of the following pairs are correctly matched? Principal wavelength Physiological of light event.
a. $700$nm- Photo system I
b. $650$nm- Photo system II
c. $690$nm- Photo system III
d. $620$nm- Phycocyanin

  2. $1, 3$ and $4$
  3. $2$ and $4$
  4. $1$ and $3$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

PS I absorbs at 700nm, PS II at 680nm (650nm is often associated with accessory pigments/PS II complex), and Phycocyanin absorbs around 620nm. PS III does not exist.
