Synthesis of each molecule of glucose in photosynthesis involves 10 molecules of ATP 8 molecules of ATP 6 molecules of ATP 18 molecules of ATP

A

10 molecules of ATP

B

8 molecules of ATP

C

6 molecules of ATP

D

18 molecules of ATP

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`12H_2O + 12NADP + 18 ADP overset("Light reaction")to 6O_2 + 18ATP + 12NADPH`
`6CO_2 + 12NADPH + 18ATP overset("Dark reaction")to C_6H_(12)O_6 + 12NADP + 18ADP + 6H_2O`
The net reaction is ` 6CO_2 + 6H_2O to C_6H_(12)O_(6) + 6O_2`
