Best Answer

Photo systems utilize light to energize an electron which is then used in an electron transport chain to create high energy molecules for use in the dark reactions of photosynthesis.

Which photosystem is used first in photosynthesis?

Photosystem 2 happens in photosynthesis before photosystem 1. However they are numbered in order of how they were discovered. Photosystem 1 was discovered before photosystem 2. In photosynthesis the order of them is 2 then 1. meaning that photosystem 1 was discovered 1st but photosystem 2 happens 1st in photosynthesis


What are the two molecular groups of photosynthesis?

Photosystem 1 and Photosystem 2


What groups of molecule are involved in photosynthesis?

Photosystem


What molecule absorbs sunlight in photosynthesis?

Photosystem II


What sequence accurately reflects the flow of electrons in photosynthesis?

The flow of electrons in photosynthesis has four sequential steps. Here is the sequence: from water to photosystem II then photosystem I and lastly NADP.


Which complex or enzyme of photosynthesis consumes h2o?

photosystem II


What is the start of photosynthesis?

pigments in photosystem II absorb light


What is photosystem 11?

It's photosystem II, in the electron transport chain of photosynthesis where light is used to create O2 and H.


Is photosynthesis a system?

Photosynthesis is not a system. It is a process in plants. It is very important process.Photosynthesis is a process of making sugars from CO2 and water by using light energy. Photosystem I and photosystem II are involved in this process to transfer electrons across the membrane. Photosynthesis occurs in plants algae and certain bacteria.


Water participates directly in the light reactions of photosynthesis by?

Water participates directly in the light reactions of photosynthesis by donating electrons to photosystem II. Photosystem I and photosystem II both contain chlorophyll as molecules.


Which happens last in the process of photosynthesis?

Photosystem I or the p700 complex is used last in photosynthesis.


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)
