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)

  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.

Consider following statements A & B
A - The enzyme acts on 'N' terminal of polypeptide chain
B - The enzyme acts on 'C' terminal of a polypeptide chain
Choose the correct option w.r.t the digestive juices which contain these enzymes

  1. A- Succus entericus B - Pancreatic juice

  2. A - Intestinal juice B - Bile juice in duodenum

  3. A - Pancreatic juice B - Intestinal juice

  4. A - Intestinal juice B - Gastric juice


Correct Option: A

Why does the total amount of $CO _2$ in the atmosphere remains constant even though respiration liberates $CO _2$?

  1. $CO _2$ acts as a buffer

  2. $CO _2$ is converted to carbohydrates in photosynthesis

  3. $CO _2$ forms carbonic acid

  4. $CO _2$ undergoes cleavage during photosynthesis.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
Most organisms release or exhale $CO _2$ during respiration. This $CO _2$  present in the environment is utilized by plants in the process of photosynthesis with the final product being a carbohydrate. This is how the amount of $CO _2$  in the atmosphere is kept under check.
So, the correct answer is '$CO _2$  is converted to carbohydrates in photosynthesis'.

In a plant cell chlorophyll is present in:

  1. Caraplasts

  2. Stroma

  3. Leucoplast

  4. Chloroplast


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

the green coloured, chief photosynthetic pigment present in the chloroplasts of higher plants is called chlorophyll. It is found in algae, and higher plants.

So, the correct option is 'Chloroplasts'.
