Miller and Levine Chapter 12

Which component of the photosynthetic apparatus is responsible for generating ATP?

• Photosystem I

• Photosystem II

• ATP Synthase

• Electron Transport Chain

What is the primary role of the electron transport chain in photosynthesis?

• To produce glucose and oxygen directly.

• To shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions.

• To absorb light energy and transfer it to the chloroplast.

• To convert NADP+ and ADP into NADPH and ATP without light.

What is the role of ATP synthase?

• It is a type of plant that uses the Calvin cycle.

• It is a large protein that uses energy from H+ ions to bind ADP and a phosphate group together to produce ATP.

• It is a plant adaptation for photosynthesis in arid conditions.

• It is the end product of a reaction that supplies CO2 for the Calvin cycle.
