To make energy-carrier molecules like NADPH
Photosystem two produces O2, ATP, and NADP+
Photosystem II plays a role in absorbing light energy and initiating the process of photosynthesis by passing electrons through the electron transport chain. It also splits water molecules to release oxygen as a byproduct.
Water is split to have its electrons replace the excited electron of chlorophyll, then enters photosystem II.
Yes, photosystem 2 is a light-dependent process in photosynthesis. It absorbs photons to initiate the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, where it helps generate oxygen and produce ATP and NADPH.
The cluster of light harvesting complexes in a thylakoid is called a photosystem. It consists of chlorophyll molecules and other pigments that absorb light energy and transfer it to reaction centers where photosynthesis takes place. Photosystem I and Photosystem II are the two main types found in the thylakoid membrane.

Plastocyanin is a copper-containing protein that plays a crucial role in photosynthesis by shuttling electrons between photosystem II and photosystem I in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts. It helps in the transfer of electrons during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.

No. Photosystems I and II are where light-dependent reactions occur, while the Calvin Cycle is where light-independent reactions occur. Photosynthesis begins with Photosystem II, then Photosystem I, then the products from there go to the Calvin Cycle. (yes photosystem II comes before photosystem I)
Photosystem I absorbs light best at a wavelength of 700 nm, while Photosystem II absorbs light best at a wavelength of 680 nm. Photosystem I transfers electrons to reduce NADP+ to NADPH, while Photosystem II replenishes electrons lost in the process of photosynthesis. Both photosystems work together in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis to ultimately produce ATP and NADPH.
