| What is the order of events that would occur in the production of ATP fueled by the energy collected by photosystem 2? |
|
Definition
1. Electrons pass along the electron transport chain
2. Hydrogen ion gradient is established
3. Hydrogen ions flow through ATP synthase |

Term
| What are the advantages of the C4 pathway over the C3 pathway? |
|
Definition
Photorespiration does not occur in C4 plants.
The C4 pathway allows a plant to close its stromata for longer periods.
The C4 pathway increases photosynthesis at high temperatures. |
