In photosynthesis_________ drives electrons from a low-energy state in water to a high-energy state
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

In photosynthesis LIGHT ENERGY drives electrons from a low energy state in water to a high energy state.

Explanation:

<em>Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and cyanobacteria to utilize energy from sunlight and turn into chemical energy. </em>

<em>There are two types of this process: oxygenic photosynthesis and anoxygenic  photosynthesis. The general principles of both of them is very similar, however oxygenic is the most regular to see in plants, algae and cyanobacteria.</em>

<em>The oxygenic photosynthesis begins when the light energy transfers electrons from water  to carbon dioxide, so that carbohydrates can be produced.  During this transfer, CO₂ is reduced  or receive electrons and the water becomes oxidized, meaning, it loses electrons. The oxigen is produced along with carbohydrates.</em>
