Question

What would be most likely to happen if some of the proteins in one of the photosystem were to change shape due to a rise in cell pH?


A. An increase in the O2 absorbed by the cell
B. A decrease in the formation of chlorophyll
C. A decrease in the formation of ATP
D. An increase in the CO2 absorbed by the cell

Answer 1

it is (C) Welcome!!!!!!

Answer 2

Answer;

C. A decrease in the formation of ATP

Explanation;

-During the first stage of photosynthesis NADPH is created. It involves two set of molecules, that is photosystem I and photosystem II, which absorb sunlight, then convert it to chemical energy, and transfer it to electrons.

-Outside factors may cause the plant's pH level to drop during photosynthesis. When this happens, the shape of the proteins may be altered within the two photosystems and cause a decrease in the formation of NADPH, thus adversely affecting efficient photosynthesis, and cause a decrease in the formation of ATP.
