I know anoxygenic does not use water. It must use CO2 or some organic molecule for its process of photosynthesis to occur. I also know what anoxy. only uses 1 photosystem while oxygenic uses 2 photosystems. Cyanobacteria is an example of a microbes that uses the icy. Photosynthesis....but what are some other differences between the two? Can you help me out? You are surely appreciated.

∙ 11y agoBasically the difference in the terminal electron difference as signified by the name is clear.That means that oxygenic has the terminal acceptor as the oxygen molecule but the anoxygenic does not use oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor. Though there are many other differences this is the main difference

∙ 10y agoPhotosynthesis and cellular respiration are the opposites of each other. Photosynthesis takes in energy (from the sun's light) and stores that energy in complex sugars. Cellular respiration breaks down these complex sugars and turns the stored energy into the usable form of energy, ATP.

Photosystems 1 and 2 are both located in the thylakoid membrane what advantage does their proximity provide?
The thylakoid, a membranous body located in a chloroplast, hosts the light reactions of oxygenic photosynthesis.
Does water molecules become part of sugar molecules during photosynthesis?
Glucose and other sugars (all made during photosynthesis) are the fuels that power all living things. Since water is used as the electron donor in oxygenic photosynthesis, it become part of the sugar molecules......................................................... by sandeep
Is Oscillatoria unicellular or multicellular?
Amoeba is Unicellular , & can also be a multicellularthey are unicellular and multicellular.and i dint know why.
How do plants create their own energy?
From Wiki: "photosynthesis"Since water is used as the electron donor in oxygenic photosynthesis, the equation for this process is: 2n CO2 + 2n H2O + photons → 2(CH2O)n + 2n O2carbon dioxide + water + light energy → carbohydrate + oxygenANSWER = carbohydrates (sugars)
Plants cannot release energy from glucose using?
Photosynthesis.
What is the ultimate electron donor?
The final electron acceptor is NADP. In oxygenic photosynthesis, the first electron donor is water, creating oxygen as a waste product. In anoxygenic photosynthesis various electron donors are used. Cytochrome b6f and ATP synthase work together to create ATP.
Who is Scientist Robert hill?
He was a British plant biochemist who, in 1939, demonstrated the 'Hill reaction' of photosynthesis. It proved that oxygen is evolving during the light requiring steps of photosynthesis. He also made significant contributions to the development of the Z-scheme of oxygenic photosynthesis.
Does bacteria trap energy in an ecosystem?
Yes, there are certain bacterial species which trap light energy coming from sun in the process of photosynthesis or there are some photosynthetic bacterial species whcih carry anoxygenic light reaction of photosynthesis. Bacterial photosynthesis is broadly of two types: Purple Nonsulfur bacterial photosynthesis and Green sulfur bacterial photosynthesis.
Photosystems 1 and 2 are both located in the thylakoid membrane what advantage does their proximity provide?
The thylakoid, a membranous body located in a chloroplast, hosts the light reactions of oxygenic photosynthesis.
Why is neither oxygen or nadph generated by cyclic electron flow?
During oxygenic photosynthesis, photosystem (PS) 1 and 2 cooperate to achieve a linear electron flow from H20 to NAPD.
What chemical reaction takes place in plankton that is vital for life on your planet?
water splitting(oxidation of water to molecular oxygen during oxygenic photosynthesis by Oxygen Evolving Complex in photosystem 2)
Are all organisms that are photosynthetic are oxygenic?
yes

Where do electrons get their energy light reactions?
.From photons in solar energy

How do prokaryotes early in Earth's history alter environments on Earth?
They evolved through mutations and natural selection, of course. First change: 1. The "primordial soup" became less "soupy" and more "watery" as protobionts got better at incorporating the organic materials into their structures. Later changes: 2. With oxygenic photosynthesis, oxygen combined with dissolved iron in the oceans. The oxidized material (mostly hematite and magnetite) precipitated out and are found as "banded iron formations" today. 3. With oxygenic photosynthesis, eventually enough oxygen gas was released that it significantly changed the overall makeup of the atmosphere. With free oxygen, an "ozone layer" formed, helping to protect the earth's surface from solar ultraviolet.
