Match column I with column II and select the correct option from the given codes

 Sr. no  Column I  Sr.no Column II 
 A.  $C _4$ plant  i.  Succulents
 B.  Chlorophyll $b$  ii.  Accessory photosynthetic pigment
 C.  PS II  iii.  Photooxodation of $H _2O$
 D.  CAM  iv.  Kranz anatomy 

.


  1. A - (iv), B - (ii), C - (iii), D - (i)

  2. A - (iii), B - (ii), C - (iv), D - (i)

  3. A - (i), B - (iii), C - (ii), D - (iv)

  4. A - (i), B - (ii), C - (iii), D - (iv)


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

(A) C$ _4$ plant - Kranz anatomy 

(B) Chlorophyll b - Succulents
(C) PS II - Photooxidation of water
(D) CAM - Accessory photosynthetic pigment
So, the correct answer is (a).

Following table summarises the differences between light reaction and dark reaction. 

Light reaction     Dark reaction      
i These arealso called as biosynthetic phase These are also calledas photochemicalphase
ii These reactionoccur over thylakoids. These reaction occur in stroma of chloroplasts.
iii These produce assimilatory power i.e.$NADPH _{2}$and ATP  These consume $NADPH _{2}$ and ATP.
iv  These are directiondependent uponlight. These depend upon the products synthesisedduring light reaction

Which of the above pairs of difference is/are incorrect?

  1. (i) and (iv)

  2. (iii) and (iv)

  3. (ii) only

  4. (i) only


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The light reaction is also called as photochemical phase whereas dark reaction is called as biosynthetic phase.

So the correct option is D.
