Difference Between Cyclic Photophosphorylation and Non Cyclic Photophosphorylation
Main DifferenceCyclic photophosphorylation produces ATP only, Phosphorylation is the mechanism by which phosphate group is added to a compound or molecule. It takes place in all living organisms, but photophosphorylation is the type of phosphorylation that only takes place in plants and some bacteria (not in human). Following that, cyclic photophosphorylation is the process that involves cyclic electron transport, whereas non-cyclic photophosphorylation is the process that does not involve a cyclic electron transport.
