It has to make two products, Those are ingredients of the dark reaction.
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.
The two reactions which occur during photosynthesis are light reaction and dark reaction. Light reaction takes place only in the presence of light. Dark reaction can occur with or without light.
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)
Water is split in the light reactions of photosynthesis to provide electrons for the photosynthetic electron transport chain. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct. Additionally, water molecules help maintain the balance of protons and electrons within the thylakoid membrane during the light reactions.
The process of light-dependent reactions (Photosystem II) in photosynthesis is most affected by ion leakage. Ion leakage disrupts the electron transport chain and reduces the production of ATP and NADPH, which are essential for driving the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.

Splitting H2O (Apex)
Excitation of electrons in photosystem II.
Water participates directly in the light reactions of photosynthesis by donating electrons to photosystem II during the process of photolysis. These electrons are used to replace the ones lost by chlorophyll when it absorbs light energy, allowing the photosystem to continue absorbing light and generating ATP and NADPH for the Calvin cycle.
The two reactions which occur during photosynthesis are light reaction and dark reaction. Light reaction takes place only in the presence of light. Dark reaction can occur with or without light.

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)
Water is split in the light reactions of photosynthesis to provide electrons for the photosynthetic electron transport chain. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct. Additionally, water molecules help maintain the balance of protons and electrons within the thylakoid membrane during the light reactions.
No, PS I and PS II are part of the first stage of photosynthesis, the light reactions. The Calvin cycle is the second stage of photosynthesis and does utilize the photosystems.
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.
Oxygen is produced during the light reactions of photosynthesis when water molecules are split by the photosystem II complex. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct.
