Which one is photophosphorylation?
A. ADP + AMP ATP
B. ADP + Inorganic phosphate ATP
C. ADP + Inorganic PO4 ⟶ ATP
D. AMP + Inorganic PO4 ⟶ ATP
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
ADP + Inorganic phosphate ATP is photophosphorylation.In photophosphorylation, light energy is used to pump protons across a biological membrane, mediated by the flow of electrons through an electron transport chain. This stores energy in a proton gradient.
As the protons flow back through an enzyme called ATP synthase, ATP is generated from ADP and inorganic phosphate.
