The photosystems are sets of chlorophyll molecules and other pigments and transmembrane proteins packed in the thylakoids, the transfer of electrons from the primary electron acceptor of photosystem II to the P700 chlorophyll a molecules of photosystem I is called photophosphorylation.

<h3>What is photophosphorylation?</h3>

It is the global process of transformation of the energy stored in the electron of the reactive center excited by light, in a pyrophosphate bond of an ADP molecule.

When a photon is absorbed by one of the pigments of photosystem II, it quickly bounces off the other molecules until it reaches chlorophyll a in the reaction center.

The electron, after leaving photosystem II, reaches the reaction center of photosystem I, where chlorophyll P700 is, the pigments absorb light and the electron reacquires a high level of energy.

Therefore, we can conclude that when this molecule absorbs light energy, an electron is thrown up to a higher energy level and transferred to another molecule, a primary electron acceptor.

Based on the diagram below, which part of an atom has the greatest mass?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The nucleus will have the greatest mass. Among the 3 kinds of subatomic particles, electrons are the lightest (by several orders of magnitude), protons and neutrons are much closer is magnitude, though neutrons are slightly heavier. However, in the diagram, the nucleus contains both the neutrons and the protons, so its combined mass would be heavier than either the neutrons alone or the protons alone.

Select all that apply: Which of the following affect(s) the half-life of a radioactive substance?
frutty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, the type of isotope

Explanation:

The half life of a radioactive substance is a constant value and thus it is not affected by the temperature, catalyst or mass of the substance.  Basically it is the time taken by a radioactive substance to reduce its mass by half of its actual value. Radioactive decay takes place only when the atomic nucleus becomes unstable and thus the isotope type is the only factor which affects the radioactive decay of any element.
