In the lowest excited state, the excited chlorophyll has four alternative pathways for disposing of its available energy which of the statement of alternative pathway would be INCORRECT?

  1. Excited chlorophyll can re-emit a photon and thereby return to its ground state—a process known as fluorescence, When it does so, the wavelength of fluorescence is slightly longer than the wavelength of absorption
  2. The excited chlorophyll can return to its ground state by directly converting its excitation energy into heat, with the emission of a photon
  3. Chlorophyll may participate in energy transfer, during which an excited chlorophyll transfers its energy to another molecule
  4. The photochemistry, in which the energy of the excited state causes chemical reactions to occur, the photochemical reactions of photosynthesis are among the fastest known chemical reactions
