- Who coined the term ‘root pressure’?
(a) Schwendener (b) Catalado
(c) Stephen Hales (d) Kramer - Consider the following statements and choose the incorrect
one.
(a) Light compensation point is a point in light intensity
when no gaseous exchange is observed between the
environment and the photosynthetic organ illuminated
by that light intensity.
(b) At a very high oxygen content, the rate of photosynthesis
begins to decline in all plants, this phenomenon is
called Warburg effect.
(c) Red light stimulates protein synthesis while blue light
favours carbohydrate accumulation.
(d) Temperature does not influence light reactions of
photosynthesis but affects the enzyme controlled dark
reactions.
