Question

During photochemical reaction of photosynthesis:

• A. Liberation of oxygen takes place.
• B. Formation of ATP and NADPH${}_2$ take place.
• C. Liberation of O${}_2$ and formation of ATP and NADPH${}_2$ take place.
• D. Assimilation of CO${}_2$ takes place.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Liberation of O${}_2$ and formation of ATP and NADPH${}_2$ take place.

The photochemical reaction of photosynthesis is the light reaction. It occurs in the thylakoid. Oxygen is produced as a product of the process of photolysis of water. ATP and NADPH${}_2$ are also produced which are further used during the dark reaction of the photosynthesis.

So, the correct answer is option C.
