The physics term we generally apply is photoelectric effect. Back in the day (and none of those guys are still around), it might have been called the photovoltaic effect. You need a link, and we've got one for ya. It's to Wikipedia's post on this topic.

What is the energy that excites p680 and p700 is supplied by what?
sunlight from the sun
A negatively charged particle?
A negatively charged atom is called an electron.
What is the photograph taken from using an electron microscope called?
electron micrograph
The units of energy in sunlight are called?
stomata
What is energy derived from sunlight called?
sunnlight
Sunlight excites electrons in the chlorophyll during the what?
During the light reaction, sunlight excites electrons of chlorophyll P680 in Photosystem One.
What is the energy that excites p680 and p700 is supplied by what?
sunlight from the sun
What happen to the light energy that is trapped by the chloroplast during the first stage of photosynthesis?
Light energy is not exactly trapped. The light energy excites the electron in the reaction centres of photosystem I and photosystem II. The electron excites and transfers to the electron transport chain ( chain of electron carriers), this produces ATP. Then the electron of photosystem II is transferred by photosystem I and the electron of the photosystem I is used with H+ and NADP to form NADPH. Photosystem II gets back an electron from photolysis of water.
When sunlight excites electrons how do the electrons change?
Depending on the energy (frequency) of the specific photon hitting the electron, one of three events happens: nothing, the electron is excited, or the electron leaves the atom. If the energy of the photon very high, the electron can absorb the energy and escape the nucleus' pull. This is called ionization. If the energy of the photon lines up with the energy spacing in the atoms energy levels, the electron will move to a higher energy state, becoming excited. The electron then returns to its original energy level, releasing the energy as light. If the energy of the photon does not fall into one of these categories, the electron does not interact with it. In terms of actually changing the electron, it only changes in energy, not any other property.
What goes in the electron transport chain?
When light hits photosytem II (within the thylakoid), it excites electrons which move through the electron transport chain.
What is a physiological explanation for the effect of sunlight on plant growth?
the photon excites an electron that starts a reaction. the parts of the reaction are splitting a water molecule into oxygen, two protons, and two electrons. electrons replenish the excited electrons. protons are used in ETC, electron transport chain, and oxygen is released as waste. the ETC is used to make the energy for the plant to make glucose for the plant
What happens when an excited electron is passed to an electron acceptor in a photosystem?
When an excited electron is passed to an electron acceptor in a photosystem, energy in sunlight is transformed to chemical energy.
An electron with a speed of 5 x 10to the 6 m collides with an atom the collision excites the atom from a 0 to 3.8 ev what is the speed of the electron?
You may want to re-phrase the question, since you've already stated the speed of the electron as 5000000 m/s.
What is energy from sunlight called?
Energy from sunlight is called solar energy
When sunlight excites electrons in the chlorophyll how do the electrons changes?
As red and blue light energy is absorbed by Chlorophyll electrons in outer shell are excited & raised to a higher energy level.
