Organization of the protein complexes the photosystems I and II Are spatially separated in the thylakoid membrane, choose the correct arrangement of PSI and PSII on the membrane ;

a.) The PSI reaction centre and its associated antenna pigments and electron transfer proteins, as well as the coupling-factor enzyme that catalyzes the formation of ATP, are found almost exclusively in the stroma lamellae and at the edges of the grana lamellae

b.) The PSI reaction centre, along with its antenna chlorophylls and associated electron transport proteins, is located predominantly in the stromal lamellae

c.) The PSII reaction centre and its associated antenna pigments and electron transfer proteins, as well as the coupling-factor enzyme that catalyzes the formation of ATP, are found almost exclusively in the stroma lamellae and at the edges of the grana lamellae

d.) The PSII reaction centre, along with its antenna chlorophylls and associated electron transport proteins, is located predominantly in the grana lamellae

Nod genes, which NodD activates, code for nodulation proteins, most of which are involved in the biosynthesis of Nod factors such as;

 a) Nod factors are lipochitin oligosaccharide signal molecules

 b) Nod factor shave a chitin β-1→ 4-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine backbone

 c) These N-acetyl-D-glucosamine backbone varying in length from three to six sugar units

 d) A fatty acid chain on the C-2 position of the nonreducing sugar determine the length and degree of saturation of the fatty acyl chain by NodL

There are three essential nod gene for every bacterial species that is−NodA, NodB and NodC, that are required for synthesizing this basic structure such as;

a) NodA is an N-acyltransferase that catalyzes the addition of a fatty acyl chain

b) NodB is a chitin-oligosaccharide synthase that links the acetyl group of the terminal nonreducing sugar

c) NodC is a chitin-oligosaccharide synthase that links N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers

d) NodB is a chitin-oligosaccharide deacetylase that removes the acetyl group from the terminal nonreducing sugar

e) NodC is a chitin-oligosaccharide deacetylase that removes links N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers
