How much ATP does cyclic photophosphorylation produce?

Solution
Cyclic Photophosphorylation:
When an electron is energised in this type, it leaves chlorophyll and travels through the electron transport circuit.
Only bacteria benefit from the cyclic photophosphorylation mechanism.
In a different type of photophosphorylation reaction known as cyclic photophosphorylation, electrons follow a circular path, and just ATP (no NADPH) is generated.
Cyclic photophosphorylation is a type of photophosphorylation that occurs in cycles.
