ETC - 10 facts

• PS II & PS I need sunlight to get excited

• Breaking apart of water molecules is called photalysis

• PS II passes the electrons to plastoquinone (PQ) to transport the electrons to the cytochrome

• B6F passes the electrons from the PQ and send it off to Plastocyanin to distribute it to PS I

• PS II and PS I are photo systems which means they need sun to activate

• PS I was discovered before PS II 

• PS I passes its electron to ferredoxin and ferredoxin become reduced

• NADP becomes negative after an electron passes through it, the positiv Hydrogen molecules bond with it making NADPH

• ADP synthase bonds with Adenine and two phosphate molecules to form the adenine diphosphate (ADP); these begin spinning quickly allowing the excess hydrogen to exit the leaf. This movement of the hydrogen atoms causes the spinning to slow down.
• The third phosphate bonds with the ADP to form ATP
