Question

Thylakoids removed from chloroplasts were kept in illuminated culture having $C{O}_2$ and water, it did not produce sugar because of

• A. absence of enzymes
• B. non linking of PS I and PS II
• C. absence of light trapping molecules
• D. non formation of assimilatory power

Answer 1

The correct option is A absence of enzymes

Thylakoids are the site of light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis. Hence they cannot produce hexose as end product because of the absence of $C{O}_2$ assimilating enzyme.

Therefore the right answer is option "A, absence of enzymes".
