  1. In overall photosynthetic pathway, for one molecule of O2 liberated eight light quanta are required two molecules of NADPH2 are formed. Besides this, certain amount of energy is also released along with electron transport. This energy is liberated as
    1. 2 ATP molecules
    2. 8 ATP molecules
    3. 3 ATP molecules
    4. 4 ATP molecules
  2. The diagram given below shows the relation between light intensity and CO2 concentration on the rate of photosynthesis. Which one of the following explains the diagram correctly?
    1. At low intensity, the light-dependent reaction is rate limiting but at high light intensity, the light-dependent reaction involving CO2 is rate limiting
    2. The number of chlorophyll molecules prevent the rate of photosynthesis from increasing above a certain limit
