it is something to do with electrons and being charged!
The molecule that picks up energized electrons in the thylakoid membranes during photosynthesis is called NADP+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). It accepts the electrons and is reduced to NADPH, which then carries the electrons to the Calvin cycle for the production of sugars.
The thylakoid membrane contains 2 photosytems, known as Photosystem I and Photosystem II. Together, they function to absorb light and transfer energy to electrons.
The supply of electrons in photosynthesis comes from water molecules. This process, known as photolysis, occurs in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. Water molecules are broken down into oxygen, protons, and electrons, with the electrons being used to replenish the electrons lost in the photosystem II reaction center.
NADP+ plays a crucial role in photosynthesis by accepting high-energy electrons and hydrogen to form NADPH during the light-dependent reactions. NADPH then carries these energized electrons to the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions) to help convert carbon dioxide into glucose and other sugars.
The cycle you are referring to is called cellular respiration. During this process, glucose is broken down in a series of reactions to produce ATP. Along the way, energized electrons are transferred to electron carriers like NADH and FADH2. These energized electrons are then passed along the electron transport chain to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
Yes because there are two photosystems (clusters of chlorophyll) which is where the sunlight is absorbed from, the electrons are energized at both times because sunlight contains photons which are the molecules that energize the electrons in the first place

chlorophyll
It energized by sunlight.They are used in photosynthesis
Chlorophyll 😊
It is the carbohydrates. carbohydrate is glucose.
Yes, chlorophyll is energized in photosynthesis. When chlorophyll absorbs light energy, it becomes excited and enters an energized state. This energized chlorophyll is then able to transfer the absorbed energy to other molecules involved in the process of photosynthesis, which ultimately leads to the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
Yes, energized electrons at the primary electron acceptor flow to the reaction center of photosystem I or II in the process of photosynthesis. This movement of electrons is essential for the conversion of light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
The electrons that move between photosystems in photosynthesis are energized by sunlight and carried by electron carrier molecules such as plastocyanin and ferredoxin. These high-energy electrons are transferred through a series of redox reactions in the electron transport chain to generate ATP and NADPH for the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.

It splits the water molecules into Hyrodgen and Oxygen.
