Oxygen is not produced during photosynthesis by
Options
- ACycas
- BNostac
- CGreen sulphur bacteria
- DChara
Correct answer
C. Green sulphur bacteria
Step-by-step solution
Green sulfur bacteria are nonmotile and capable of anoxygenic photosynthesis. In contrast to plants, green sulfur bacteria mainly use sulfide ions as electron donors. Cycas belongs to Gymnospermaea, which show oxygenic photosynthesis. Chara is a Chlorophyceae member to show oxygenic photosynthesis. Cyanobacteria like Nostoc , Anabaena have evoleved oxygenic photosynthetic mechanism.
