It's photosystem II, in the electron transport chain of photosynthesis where light is used to create O2 and H.
In photosystem 2- water(photolysis) In photosystem 1 - electron from photosystem 2
Photosystem II is older in terms of evolutionary history compared to Photosystem I. Photosystem II is thought to have evolved before Photosystem I as it evolved to oxidize water in order to provide electrons for the electron transport chain, which Photosystem I then uses to reduce NADP+ to NADPH.
Photosystem 2 happens in photosynthesis before photosystem 1. However they are numbered in order of how they were discovered. Photosystem 1 was discovered before photosystem 2. In photosynthesis the order of them is 2 then 1. meaning that photosystem 1 was discovered 1st but photosystem 2 happens 1st in photosynthesis
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.
Photosystem two produces O2, ATP, and NADP+
NADPH
Photosystem 2 is located in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts, while Photosystem 1 is located downstream from Photosystem 2 in the thylakoid membrane. Both photosystems are important for light-dependent reactions during photosynthesis.
Photosystem's electron travel through the electron transport chain(etc) where ATP is produced and then back to the photosystem. In non-cyclic photophosphorylation, Photosystem II electron then is absorbed by photosystem I, photosystem I electron used to form NADPH and photosystem II gets its electron from photolysis of water. For you unfortunate children using Novanet: They move through an electron transport chain to photosystem 1.

Photosystem 1
Photosystem II most likely evolved first because it provides the energy for producing ATP and passes its electrons to photosystem I.
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.
A Photosystem is a funnel shaped cluster of photosynthetic pigments, in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.
Photosystem two produces O2, ATP, and NADP+
ADP takes on energy and a phosphate to produce ATP in photosystem II.
