What organelle in plants which is directly responsible for photosynthesis is?
The chloroplasts, specifically the thylakoid membranes, which house photosystems I ans II.
Where does photosystem 2 and photosystem 1 take placein the organelle?
Photosystems I and II are both in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast.
What contains chlorophyll that changes sunlight into food?
The leaves of plants, that's why their green.
What wavelengths do photosystems I and II prefer?
The photosystems are named after the wavelength for which they are the most reactive. Photosystem II is P680 which means that it has the highest reavtivity when light that is 680 nanometers (nm) hits it. Photosystem I works off the same principle; however, it is named P700 because the optimal wavelength for it is 700 nm.
What will be the result of photo-system II being exposed to less sun light?
.Fewer hydrogen ions will be pumped into the thylakoid.
Where are Photosystems I and II found?
Photosystems I and II are found in the thylakoid membrane in the chloroplast in the plant cells.

Is the energy from sunlight trapped by chlorophyll located in the electron transport chain?
No, the energy trapped by chlorophyll is located in photosystem I and II. Light energy is first captured by PS II and an electron is then transferred to a primary electron acceptor known as plastoquinone. Pq then transfers it's electron to the cytochrome complex that transfers its energy to the electron transport system which passes it on to plastocyanin which in turn gives its electron to PS I where it is re-excited by photons. This process is known as the electron transport but the energy captured by chlorophyll is located in the photosystems.
What will be the result of photosystem II exposed to less sunlight?
The thylakoid will have fewer hydrogen ions. For Apex
How are the photosynthesis 1 and photosynthesis 2 similar and how they different?
Did you mean Photysystem I and Photosystem II. They both are overall identical except that Photosystem I is actually a later part of the process of Photosynthesis than Photosystem II, its only called Photosystem I because it was discovered first. Photosynthesis starts when light excites Photosystem II causing it to break up H20 that comes from the roots into H2 and 02. (If you are wondering why oxygen becomes two molecules when in H20 there is only one molecule of it, that is because it cannot exist as one molecule stably therefore it bonds with another oxygen from another break down almost instantly.) Then Photosystem II sends electrons across the electron transport pathway (along the membrane of the Thylakoid in between the two photosystems) to Photosystem I which then uses them to convert NaDP+ into NaDPH by adding a phosphate group from outside the Thylakoid. Thats pretty much what each Photosystem does and both are located inside the Thylakoid membrane.

Where in the chloroplast is the chemiosmotic gradient developed?
In the thylakoid between photosystem II and photosystem I.
What happens if the hydrogen pumps in photosystems I and II don't work correctly?
The chloroplast will not produce ATP or NADPH.
What wavelengths do photosystems I and II prefer?
The photosystems are named after the wavelength for which they are the most reactive. Photosystem II is P680 which means that it has the highest reavtivity when light that is 680 nanometers (nm) hits it. Photosystem I works off the same principle; however, it is named P700 because the optimal wavelength for it is 700 nm.
How do photosystem 1 and 2 allow the calvin cycle to work?
No. Photosystems I and II are where light-dependent reactions occur, while the Calvin Cycle is where light-independent reactions occur. Photosynthesis begins with Photosystem II, then Photosystem I, then the products from there go to the Calvin Cycle. (yes photosystem II comes before photosystem I)
