sunlight to excite the electrons
Excite electrons
When the light "activates" the electrons, it kicks them up into higher orbitals where they have more energy. That extra energy is utilized to power the photosynthesis reaction.
No it does not. Respiration gets its energy from ATP(produced in photosynthesis when electrons travel through the electron transport chain)
solar energy → potential energy stored in electrons and ATP → chemical energy stored in sugars
Electrons are used as an exchange currency during photosynthesis. The energy that provides the boost for these electrons comes from the electron transport chain.

it is something to do with electrons and being charged!

When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work

removal of electrons from chlorophyll molecules removal of electrons from chlorophyll molecules
they are carrying energy. that is why itis important.
NADH and FADH2, in photosynthesis it's NADPH ...SHEVRZL...
