Solution

Cytochrome b6f complex an enzyme found in the thylakoid membrane in chloroplasts of plants. The enzyme catalyzes the transfer of electrons from plastoquinol to plastocyanin.

NADP+ reductase an enzyme participate in photosynthesis and catalyzes the chemical reaction where 2 molecule of reduced ferredoxin is oxidized to 2 molecule od oxidized ferredoxin and a molecule od NADPH.

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase an enzyme found in plants and some bacteria that catalyzes the addition of bicarbonate to phosphoenolpyruvate to produce the four-carbon oxaloacetate and an inorganic phosphate.

Photorespiration discusses to the process in plant metabolism where the enzyme RuBisCO oxygenates RuBP, where some of the energy is wasted which are produced by photosynthesis.

light reduces the P700 in photo system I and P680 in photo system II which are the primary electron acceptor
