Light dependent reactions are so called because they require light:

1. to provide electrons for the process
2. to split the water molecule
3. to impart energy to the electrons in the reaction center
4. to hydrolyse ATP molecules

The space of thylakoid is separated from the stroma by a membrane. If the membrane capability to maintain an environment in the thylakoid space distinct from stroma is compromised, the process most directly affected would be:
1. the splitting of water
2. the absorption of photons by chlorophyll
3. the reduction of NADP+
4. the synthesis of ATP

Chemiosmosis in chloroplasts is possible because of:

1. establishment of a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane.
2. diffusion of electrons through the ATP synthase.
3. osmosis of water from thylakoid to stroma.
4. presence of large amount of oxygen in the stroma.

The pH of the space of thylakoid of isolated chloroplast is decreased and then transferred in the dark to a pH-8 solution. The result would most likely be:
I. The isolated chloroplasts will make ATP.
II. The Calvin cycle will be activated.
III. Cyclic photophosphorylation will occur.
1. Only I
2. Only I and II
3. Only I and III
4. Only II and III
