No, the electrons flow from the reaction center to the primary electron center. Just the opposite of what you said.

Electron transport chain?
An electron transport chain (ETC) couples a reaction between an electron donor (such as NADH) and an electron acceptor (such as O2
Does The Lewis definition describes an acid as an electron-pair acceptor in a reaction true or false?
Yes, true.
How many electrons does sodium lose in a chemical reaction?
Sodium typically loses 1 electron in a chemical reaction.
Why is the chemical reduction of an electron acceptor in the photosynthetic reaction center important to plant function?
It allows the energy of absorbed light to be trapped and converted to chemical energy.
Which parts of the atoms interact in a chemical reaction?
Electrons are involved in chemical reactions.
What does a plant do with a water?
When the light cascade finally releases the P680 electrons to the primary electron acceptor of the reaction complex those electrons must be replaced. The plant has an enzyme that preforms photolysis on water, splitting it, so that two electrons are fed one at a time into the p680 chlorophylls as replacement electrons for those they have released to the primary electron acceptor.
When a compound serves as an electron acceptor it is oxidized?
No gain of electron is reduction. An atom that gains electrons is reduced in a chemical reaction. OIL RIG; oxidation is loss, reduction is gain
What does a phtosystem contain?
Photosystem is composed of pigments, reaction center and electron acceptor
Electron transport chain?
An electron transport chain (ETC) couples a reaction between an electron donor (such as NADH) and an electron acceptor (such as O2
What happens after the reaction center receives energy from molecules in the light harvesting complex?
It passes the energy to the reaction center ( a specialized region of photosystem) then the energized electrons leave the reaction centers and are passed to adjacent electron transport chains (ETC)
Does The Lewis definition describes an acid as an electron-pair acceptor in a reaction true or false?
Yes, true.
What happens to electrons in the electron chain?
Oxygen (O2) is the electron acceptor in the Electron Transport Chain. "The electrons are passed to O2, the final electron acceptor of the electron transport system. This oxygen, now negatively charged because it has acquired additional electrons, combines with H+ ions, which are positively charged because they donated electrons at the beginning of the electron transport system, to form H2O." (Sherwood 36) References: Sherwood, Lauralee. Human Physiology: from Cells to Systems. 7th ed. Australia: Brooks/Cole, Cengage Learning, 2010. Print.
Is oxygen produced by the light dependent reaction?
No it's the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain (as in respiration) so it's a reactant.
How does HNO3 acts as a oxidizing agent?
what is role of iodine in grignard reaction
What is the term for a reaction in which a substances gains electrons?
When a substance gains an electron or electrons, this is known as "reduction". For every reduction reaction, there is also an oxidation reaction. So, whatever substance "gave" the electrons, underwent oxidation.
