Multiple Choice
Refer to the table below showing data collected from chloroplasts isolated from spinach leaves.The chloroplasts were incubated with either compound Q or Z, or with no additions in the control.After 30 minutes of incubation, chloroplasts were analyzed for the photosynthetic functions shown in the table. Assume that compounds Q and Z directly affect components involved in the light reactions.What do these data indicate about the relationship between the light reactions and the light-independent reactions?
A) The light-independent reactions can occur even if the light reactions are inhibited by chemical agents.
B) If a subset of the light reactions is functional, that is sufficient for the light-independent reactions to also be functional.
C) At least one of the products of the light reactions is essential in enabling the light-independent reactions to run.
D) Chemical agents can reverse the sequence of the light reactions and the light-independent reactions.
E) Light reactions and light-independent reactions can be induced to reverse their dependency on light by the actions of chemical agents.
