The absorption of a photon by special protein in the inner membranes of the chloroplast (p680) causes the hydrolysis of water into Hydrogen and Oxygen.
2 H2O + 2 NADP+ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi + light → 2 NADPH + 2 H+ + 2 ATP + O2
The resultant energy is harnessed by coupling the movement of protons down a concentration gradient to the phosphorylation of ADP.

∙ 14y agoThe transport system is called xylem and pholem.xylem carrys water and minerals from the roots to the stalk or "stem" and pholem carry glucose or "sugars" to the roots so the plant can be fed and stay alive.
im happy i could help

When and where does the electron transport take place?
The location of the electron transport system depends on the cell type.~The electron transport system is embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondria for animal, plant and fungus cells.~The electron transport system is also in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts in plant cells.
What is the main job of the plant transport system?
The main job of the plant transport system, also known as the vascular system, is to transport water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. This system consists of xylem, which transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, and phloem, which transports sugars and other organic compounds from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
What is the main function of xylem tissue in the plant transport system?
The main function of xylem within a plant is to transport water and minerals from the roots up to the actual plant itself.
What transports water and nurtients through an plant?
There are two transport systems in a plant, one for food and one is for water. the transport tissue for food is called the phloem and for the water is called the xylem.
What are the organ's in a plant water transport system?
the chroloplasts and the cyptoplasmns and the scrutium
How is the transport system of a plant differ to a frog?
The frog differ to a plant by the automotive transport system rather than is the public locomotive transport system.
How is the transport system of a plant similar to the transport system of a frog?
Both have the cellular respiration
Which plant has a water transport system?
All plants.
What does a transport system do in a plant cell?
transports food and water supplies to the plant and cell.
In what parts of a flowering plant can you find the transport system?
the stems
What is the difference between the transport system of plant to the transport system of animals?
Plants really don't have a circulatory system. Water and nutrients move through a plant by simple physics. It's not pumped anywhere like an animal's circulatory system is.
