____ is the process of synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi in the presence of light.

A

Phosphorylation

B

Photophosphorylation

C

Photosystem

D

Oxidative phosporylation

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The process by which ATP is sysnthesised by cells in mitochondria and chloroplasta is named as phosphorylation. Photophosphorylation is the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi) in the presence of light, inside chloroplast. Photosphosphorylation is of two main types-Cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation.
