In cyclic electron transport by photosystem I,chlorophyll is reduced by

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In cyclic electron transport by photosystem I, electrons are transferred from an electron transport carrier (such as ferredoxin) to the chlorophyll in the reaction center of photosystem I. This results in the reduction of the chlorophyll and the generation of a proton gradient, which can be used to generate ATP through chemiosmosis. Unlike in non-cyclic electron transport, there is no net production of NADPH or the release of oxygen in cyclic electron transport. ATP is produced in cyclic electron transport through the chemiosmotic mechanism, but it is not involved in reducing the chlorophyll. Hydrogen ions from the splitting of water are also not involved in cyclic electron transport, as this process only involves photosystem I and does not require photosystem II or the splitting of water.
