Q141
Quantum yield of Photosynthesis
A.
0.02 - 0.03
B.
0.08 - 0.12
AnswerC.
1.12 - 3.23
D.
0.36 - 9.65
Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The quantum yield of any radiation-induced process like photosynthesis is the number of times a specific event occurs per photon absorbed by the system. It is a definitive measure of the energetic efficiency of photo autotrophy. It is calculated from light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis. It is approximately 0.08 - 0.12.
