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

Options

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

Correct answer

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

Step-by-step solution

According to NCERT, stroma lamellae lack PS II as well as NADP reductase enzyme (A matches with III). The grana lamellae have both PS I and PS II (B matches with I). Cyclic photophosphorylation involves only PS I and results in the synthesis of only ATP, not NADPH (C matches with IV). Non-cyclic photophosphorylation involves both PS I and PS II, resulting in the synthesis of both ATP and NADPH + H+ (D matches with II). Therefore, the correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II. Answer: A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
