Explanation / Answer

Hi Answer:

1. The flow of protons during the light reaction of photosynthesis is from thylakoids space to storms and back to thylakoids space through the ATPase?

Answer: True [H+ flow back through ATP synthase / synthetase channels to produce ATP]

2. Which of the following event takes place during glycolysis?

Answer: Option E. [All of the above]

The glycolysis process is carried out by various redox reaction i.e. both oxidation and reduction reaction took place. During glycolysis glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate a NAD takes an H and turns into NADH means NAD get reduced whereas glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate lose one electron and get oxidized. Next is the exergonic nature of glycolysis because of the breakdown of the organic compound (glucose) to release energy. And in another side, it also acts as an endergonic process because during the generation of ATP, inorganic phosphate is bound to the ADP and produce ATP and this process require energy input. Note: The main process of Glycolysis is always exergonic in nature only ATP generation is endergonic.
