Some of the electrons become excited. means that they have comparatively more energy. the flow of energy takes place through these excited electrons. these are transferred form the reaction center chlorophyll to the primary electron acceptors.
Yes, excited electrons from the acceptor molecule are sent to the electron transport chain. This process allows the electrons to move through a series of protein complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane, ultimately leading to the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.

No, when an atom is in an excited state, its electrons have gained energy, and they proceed to lose it when they fall back into their normal energy levels
When electrons are excited, they absorb energy and move to higher energy levels. This can happen through various processes like heat, light, or electrical energy. The excited state is temporary, and electrons will eventually return to their original energy levels, releasing the absorbed energy in the form of light or heat.
When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs light, the process of photosynthesis, or the transfer of light into sugar, begins. Chlorophyll is a green liquid inside one part of a plant cell: the chloroplast. When light hits the chlorophyll molecule, it becomes excited. This energy passes through other chlorophyll molecules, and into the reaction center of Photosystem II: this is the location of the first stage of photosynthesis, and the electron transport chain. For each photon of light that enters and excites a chlorophyll molecule, one electron is released from the reaction center of Photosystem II. When two electrons are released, they are transferred to Plastoquinone Qb, a mobile carrier, which picks up two protons and starts moving towards the Cytochrome b6f complex. Cytochrome b6f, like Photosystem II, is a complex where photosynthesis processes occur.
When light strikes a chlorophyll molecule, electrons in the chloroplast get excited.
The source of electrons that makes chlorophyll stable again is water. The process of photosynthesis involves the splitting of water molecules to provide electrons, which are then used to replace the electrons lost from the chlorophyll molecule during absorption of light.
As red and blue light energy is absorbed by Chlorophyll electrons in outer shell are excited & raised to a higher energy level.

When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs a photon of light, Photons strike the "antenna" of the chlorophyll molecule. This causes electrons in the photo-reaction centers that are attached to the antennas to become excited and move to a higher energy level. That's photoexcitation. The valence electrons in Magnesium (part of the chlorophyl molecule) jump to an excited state.
Electrons in photosystem II get their energy from sunlight. When photons from sunlight are absorbed by the chlorophyll molecules in the photosystem, the energy is transferred to electrons, allowing them to become excited and drive the process of photosynthesis.
the electrons gain a huge amount of energy
Excited Electrons
It becomes excited.
The event that accompanies energy absorption by chlorophyll or other pigment molecules of the antenna complex is the excitation of electrons. When light energy is absorbed by the pigment molecules, their electrons get excited to a higher energy state. This excited state is essential for the subsequent transfer of energy to the reaction center of the photosystem for further processing.
