Where do electrons come from and how it gains energy during the light reaction?

They come from Photosystem ll. Photosystem ll gets them by ripping the electrons off of water by a process called photolysis.
Electrons gain energy first in Photosystem ll, then later in photosystem l, through the absorption of energy from light.

What is the term for a reaction in which a substrate gains electrons?
gain of electrons = reduction
Do oxygen gain or lose electrons?
Oxygen is an oxidizer, it will gain electrons in a reaction to complete it's valence shell.
What is the energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons called?
The energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons is called the
What term describes a reaction where a positive ion gains electrons?
anode
Why carbon cannot lose or gain its electron?
It is not that way. Carbon gains electrons while a chemical reaction to have 8 shells in the outermost orbit. Though it has 4 electrons in the outermost orbit, it usually gains four electrons or shares four electrons while a chemical reaction. eg hydrocarbons methane butane propane.
A chemical reaction in which a molecule gains electrons and energy?

What is the term for a reaction in which a substances gains electrons?
When a substance gains an electron or electrons, this is known as "reduction". For every reduction reaction, there is also an oxidation reaction. So, whatever substance "gave" the electrons, underwent oxidation.
