Best Answer

cyclic phosphorylation

  • involve PS1 only
  • only ATP produced
  • no photolysis of water
  • final acceptor not NADP,so no production NADPH
non-cyclic phosphorylation
  • involve PSI and PSII
  • ATP and NADPH produced
  • involved photolysis of water
  • final acceptor is NADP,so there is production NADPH

the difference is that a cycle occurs more than once and a non-cyclic does not occur more than once

The electrons that are passed to NADPH during noncyclic photophosphorylation were obtained from?

The electrons that are passed to NADPH during noncyclic photophosphorylation were obtained from water. The ultimate electron and hydrogen acceptor in the noncyclic pathway is NADPH+.


In noncyclic photophosphorylation what is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water?

Carbon dioxide is a noncyclic photophosphorylation and is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water. A product of both cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation is ATP.
