Q

Protons that accompany plastoquinone from photosystem II to the cytochrome b6-f complex start in _____ and end up in _____.

the stroma, the thalakoid space

the intermembrane space, the stroma

the thylakoid space, the stroma

the thylakoid space, the intermembrane space

A

the stroma, the thalakoid space

17
Q

An electron transport system of photosystem I produces NADPH in:

the stroma

the intermembrane space

the thylakoid space

A

The stroma
Yes!

NADPH is made as follows.

NADP+ + e- = NADP.

NADP + e- (+ H+) = NADPH.

So… reduction of NADP+ to NADPH removes a proton from circulation. The proton gradient’s steepness benefits from stromal inactivation of a proton.

Also, the stroma is where the NADPH will be used for carbon fixation.
