Question

Photophosphorylation was discovered by

• A. D. I. Arnon
• B. R. Hill
• C. M. Calvin
• D. Ruben and Kamen

Answer 1

The correct option is A D. I. Arnon

Photophosphorylation was discovered in chloroplasts by D. Arnon and co workers, and in bacterial 'chromatophores' (intercytoplasmic membranes) by A. Frenkel. The process refers to the use of light energy from photosynthesis in order to provide the energy to convert ADP to ATP, thus replenishing the universal energy.

so, the correct answer is 'D. I. Arnon'
