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
In photosystem 2- water(photolysis) In photosystem 1 - electron from photosystem 2
No, they move from photosystem 2 to photosystem 1. 2 evolved first but was not discovered until after photosystem 1.
Photosystem 1 and Photosystem 2
Both photosystem 2 & 1 are light-dependent.
photosystem 1 or 2 i forget :(
is a cluster of pigments, with a perticular chlorophyl in the center. The energy is absorbed and is then passed to the Hugh energy electrons, NADP will then pick up the electrons and make NADPH
Photosystem 1
to make energy-carrier molecules like NADPH Apex
Photosystem I contains photosynthetic units with :- 200 or more molecules of chlorophyll a,- small amounts of chlorophyll b- protein saddled carotenoid pigment,-a pair of specialized reaction-center molecules of chlorophyll called P700
1. Photosystem I is found in the membrane facing the inside of the grana and Photosystem II is found in membrane facing the stromaTHYLAKOID MEMBRANE

The structure of photosystem I in a cyanobacterium ("blue-green alga") has been completely worked out. It probably closely resembles that of plants as well. It is a homotrimer with each subunit in the trimer containing: * 12 different protein molecules bound to * 96 molecules of chlorophyll a ** 2 molecules of the reaction center chlorophyll P700 ** 4 accessory molecules closely associated with them ** 90 molecules that serve as antenna pigments * 22 carotenoid molecules * 4 lipid molecules * 3 clusters of Fe4S4 * 2 phylloquinones Photosystem II is also a complex of * > 20 different protein molecules bound to * 50 or more chlorophyll a molecules ** 2 molecules of the reaction center chlorophyll P680 ** 2 accessory molecules close to them ** 2 molecules of pheophytin (chlorophyll without the Mg++) ** the remaining molecules of chlorophyll a serve as antenna pigments. * some half dozen carotenoid molecules. These also serve as antenna pigments. * 2 molecules of plastoquinoneSource: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/L/LightReactions.html
