The water splitting step in photosynthesis is critical as a source of hydrogen ions (protons). These provide essential chemical energy to drive later chemical reactions.

∙ 15y agowell an important part of a light reaction to occur is chemiosmosis. well chemiosmosis relies on a concentrated gradient of protons across the thylakoid membrane and some of those protons come from the splitting of water.

Water is split and oxygen is released during which process?
Oxygen become a gas with a diatomic molecule.
During the dark reactions the reaction center splits water?
No, during the light reactions. Photolysis splits the water molecule at Photosystem II.
What important molecule that is needed for cellular respiration is released when water is split in the light reactions of photosynthesis?
Oxygen
What is taken in during light independent reactions?
Water is taken in. Light energy is used
When during the light reaction is the water molecule split?
Yes
What molecule is split during the light reactions photosynthesis to release oxygen?
Water is the molecule that is split during the light reaction of photosynthesis when releasing oxygen.
