Do the energized electrons at the primary electron acceptor flow to the reaction center?

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


The electrons of which element are the primary substance carried by the electron transport system?

hydrogen


Is the energy from sunlight trapped by chlorophyll located in the electron transport chain?

No, the energy trapped by chlorophyll is located in photosystem I and II. Light energy is first captured by PS II and an electron is then transferred to a primary electron acceptor known as plastoquinone. Pq then transfers it's electron to the cytochrome complex that transfers its energy to the electron transport system which passes it on to plastocyanin which in turn gives its electron to PS I where it is re-excited by photons. This process is known as the electron transport but the energy captured by chlorophyll is located in the photosystems.


What is the uncharged subatomic particle?

Neutrons are neutral, thus, have no charge. A proton is positively charged whilst an electron is negatively charged.


Subatomic particles in chemical reactions?

Which particles are involved when atoms form molecules ? All matter consists of atoms. The primary particles involved are electrons, which are charged negatively; protons that are positively charged, and neutrons; they have no charge. These are all that have importance in chemistry. There are some other very small particles, but they are studied by physicists in the field of nuclear particle physics. Electrons are the only particle involved in chemical reactions. Atoms form compounds using chemical reactions.

Where is the primary role of oxygen in cellular respiration chain located?

The primary role of oxygen in aerobic respiration is to be the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. This occurs at the mitochondrial inner membrane.

Why is P680 of photosystem II said to be the strongest biological oxidizing agent?

This molecule results from the transfer of an electron to the primary electron acceptor of photosystem II and strongly attracts another electron.

What is the primary visible color of an emission nebula?

Emission nebulae can emit photons of many wavelengths, but the predominant color is red. They can also emit blue and pink colors (which are also part of the Balmer series of the hydrogen atom).
