Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following correctly shows the movement of Electrons throughout Photosynthesis
A
H2O
B
NADPH
C
H2O
D
NADPH
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘PSII, plastoquinone, cytochromes, PSI, ferredoxin’.

Detailed explanation-2: -In a process called non-cyclic photophosphorylation (the “standard” form of the light-dependent reactions), electrons are removed from water and passed through PSII and PSI before ending up in NADPH. This process requires light to be absorbed twice, once in each photosystem, and it makes ATP .

Detailed explanation-3: -Light energy is used by photosynthetic organisms (photoautotrophs) to produce both ATP and reduced electron carrier (NADPH). ATP, NADPH, and O2 are the three products of photosynthesis’ light reaction.
