Light excites in photosynthetic pigments?

Light excites two sets of photosynthetic pigments. These are photosystem 1 (PS1) and photosystem 2 (PS2). PS1 is excited by photons at about 700 nanometers, while PS2 is excited at about 680 nanometers.

Why is the chemical reduction of an electron acceptor in the photosynthetic reaction center important to plant function?

It allows the energy of absorbed light to be trapped and converted to chemical energy.


When one electron moves from the 4th shell to the 2nd shell in hydrogen is energy absorbed or emitted by the atom?

The energy is absorbed by the electrons because work needs to be done on the electrons to raise them to an excited state. Energy is stored in the electrons while they are in their excited state and would emit energy if they returned to their ground state.
