Solution
The correct option is D All of the above
This whole scheme of transfer of electrons, starting from the PS II,
uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I,
excitation of electrons, transfer to another acceptor, and finally down
hill to NADP+ causing it to be reduced to NADPH+H+ is
called as the Z scheme, due to its characteristic shape. This shape is
formed when all the carriers are placed in a sequence on the redox
potential scale.
