describe and explain the steps in the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis - correct answer 1. photoionisation: light reaches chlorophyll in PSII, which is absorbed by an electron, which becomes excited and moves to a higher energy level. 2. the electron passes to a carrier protein in the thylakoid membrane, and is passed down a series of carrier molecules called an electron transfer chain. 3. as the electron moves down, energy is lost from the electron and is released as ATP. 4. the lo...
