There are 8 protons in an element with an atomic number of 8. Atoms are numbered after their number of protons. The number of protons is what defines the element. If the number of protons were to change, the element would not be the same, but another different one. That's why the number of protons is single to each element and they are numbered after them.
The atomic number is many times represented by the letter Z.

What are some of the functions of photosystem i and photosystem ii in plants?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Photosystem I (PS-I )and photosystem II (PS-II ) are two multi-protein complexes. These complexes contain the pigments used to absorb, harvest and catalyze the photons and light energy in the photosynthetic reactions. The main purpose of photosynthesis reactions to produce high chemical energy compounds.

Photosystem I and II are different from each other because of their absorbing wavelength of light. PS-I absorbs the longer wavelength of light than PS-II.

PS-I plays the major role in the production of high energy carriers ATP and NADPH using light energy (700 nm).

PS-II plays its function in the hydrolysis of water and ATP synthesis using light energy (680 nm).
