Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
ATP formation during photosynthesis is Photophosphorylation.
Photophosphorylation is the conversion of ADP to ATP using the energy of sunlight by activation of PSII. This involves the splitting of the water molecule into oxygen and hydrogen protons (H+), a process known as photolysis.
All organisms produce a phosphate compound, ATP, which is the universal energy currency of life. In photophosphorylation, light energy is used to pump protons across a biological membrane, mediated by the flow of electrons through an electron transport chain.
