What causes the electrons to become excited and move into the electron transport chain?
In photosynthesis, the electrons from the chlorophyll are excited by the sunlight
What makes an elements electrons in an excited state?
Electrons can be excited in an element by supplying energy to the molecule of the elements. Further eletrons get excited in chemical reactions
Electrons are excited in photosystem 1 what do these electrons combine with in order to produce an energy-carrying molecule?
NADP+
What heppens when light strikes green plant pigments?
electrons become excited
When light is absorbed by chlorophyll molecules the excited electrons leave the molecule What is the source of electrons that makes chlorophyll stable again?
Additional electrons used to stabilize the photosystems come from photolysis, the splitting of water using photons of light. This process yields 2 electrons per molecule of water.
What causes the electrons to become excited and move into the electron transport chain?
In photosynthesis, the electrons from the chlorophyll are excited by the sunlight
When sunlight excited electrons in chlorophyll how do the electrons change?
the electrons gain a huge amount of energy
What high-energy molecule do excited electrons generate?
ATP
What makes an elements electrons in an excited state?
Electrons can be excited in an element by supplying energy to the molecule of the elements. Further eletrons get excited in chemical reactions
Electrons are excited in photosystem 1 what do these electrons combine with in order to produce an energy-carrying molecule?
NADP+
Summarize how photosynthetic organisms capture the energy in sunlight?
The light-dependent portion of photosynthesis is carried out by two consecutive photosystems (photosystem I and photosystem II) in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts. The photosystems are driven by the excited chlorophyll molecules.To begin photosynthesis, the chlorophyll molecule in photosystem II is excited by sunlight and the energy produced helps to break down a water molecule (H2O) into ½O2 (with electrons removed) and 2H+. The removed electrons are excited by the light energy. When the electrons prepare to come to their rest state, they go through an oxidative phosphorylation process and produces an ATP molecule.As the electrons are coming to a resting state, they are excited again in photosystem I and raised to a even higher energy state. The excited electrons are then used to produce NADP+ + H+. The highly energetic NADPH molecule is then fed into the Calvin Cycle to conduct carbon fixation.
Are excited electrons from the acceptor molecule sent to the electron transport chain?
Yes!
What is the electron carrier molecule when carrying excited electrons it becomes NADPH?
NADP
What heppens when light strikes green plant pigments?
electrons become excited
What is the first most immediate thing that happens when light strikes a chlorophyll molecule?
When light strikes a chlorophyll molecule, electrons in the chloroplast get excited.
What is the first most immediate thing that happens when light strikes chlorophyl molecule?
When light strikes a chlorophyll molecule, electrons in the chloroplast get excited.
Electrons that have been excited by light energy absorbed by a chlorophyll molecule?
Some of the electrons become excited. means that they have comparatively more energy. the flow of energy takes place through these excited electrons. these are transferred form the reaction center chlorophyll to the primary electron acceptors.
