-(E) -(E)
-(E) -(E)
D
Excitation of electrons by light
(E) Release of oxygen Choose the correct sequence from the options given below: - - -(E)- -
(E) Release of oxygen Choose the correct sequence from the options given below: - - -(E)- -
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
Light excites electrons, leading to water splitting into 
and electrons. These electrons then help to synthesize ATP, and finally, electron transfer to NADP + that reduces to NADPH catalysed by NADPH reductase.
