Match List-I with List-II. List-I List-II A. Stroma lamellae I. Synthesizes both ATP and NADPH B. Grana lamellae II. Synthesizes ATP only C. Cyclic photophosphorylation III. Lacks PS II and NADP reductase enzyme D. Non-cyclic photophosphorylation IV. Possesses both PS I and PS II Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. AA-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
  2. BA-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
  3. CA-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
  4. DA-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I

Correct answer

C. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Step-by-step solution

The membrane system of chloroplasts shows a clear division of labour. The grana lamellae have both PS I and PS II, whereas the stroma lamellae membranes lack PS II as well as the NADP reductase enzyme. Non-cyclic photophosphorylation involves both PS I and PS II, resulting in the synthesis of both ATP and NADPH. Cyclic photophosphorylation involves only PS I, where the electron is circulated within the photosystem, resulting only in the synthesis of ATP. Answer: A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
