10 Questions
What is the role of the electron transport chain in photosynthesis?
To release energy for ATP synthesis
Where does photon transfer occur in the photosynthetic process?
From one antenna pigment to another until reaching the reaction center of PS I
What happens when P700 in PS I is photoactivated?
Electron in reaction center P700 will excite and release
Where are the excited electrons from P680 of PS II transferred to replace lost excited electrons from P700?
Primary electron acceptor
What catalyzes the transfer of electrons from ferredoxin to NADP+ in photosynthesis?
NADP+ reductase
What is the process of adding phosphate to ADP to form ATP by using the energy of sunlight called?
Photophosphorylation
Where does the process of photolysis of water occur?
Thylakoid space
Which pigment absorbs the photon (light energy) and transfers it to the reaction center of PS II?
Chlorophyll a P680
What is the main purpose of photolysis of water in photosynthesis?
To produce oxygen
