Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient
They begin to electrolyze, a term used for giving off static charge.
The electrons are passed down the electron transport chain for use in ATP production.
High-energy electrons from NADH and FADH2 are passed along the electron transport chain
The high-energy electrons in the electron transport chain are derived from molecules like NADH and FADH2, which are generated during cellular respiration in processes like glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. These molecules donate their electrons to the chain, where they are passed down through a series of protein complexes to generate ATP.

Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient
Energy is transferred to the chain of proteins in the electron transport. A electron transport chain is a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions.
they move through an electron transport chain to photosystem 1
electron transport chain
The electron transport chain is a series of protein complexes embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. As electrons pass through this chain, energy is released and used to pump protons across the membrane, creating an electrochemical gradient. This gradient is then used by ATP synthase to generate ATP, the main energy source for cellular functions.
Electrons are passed from one protein complex to another in the electron transport chain, which is a series of protein complexes embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This process generates a proton gradient that drives the production of ATP, the cell's energy currency.
After sunlight hits Photosystem II, it energizes the electrons in the chlorophyll molecules. The energized electrons are then passed through an electron transport chain, generating ATP and NADPH molecules through the process of photophosphorylation.
