- It all begins with two hydrogen molecules covalent bonding with a oxygen molecule
- When an electron is lost in an element, it is called oxidization
- When an electron is gained in an element, it is called reduction
- In order for PSII and PSI to gain electrons, it needs sunlight to get excited and oxidized
- The action of getting the electron from water molecule is called photolysis
- As NADP becomes oxidized, it takes 1 hydrogen molecule and becomes NADPH, the other H+ is released into the environment
- Adenine bonds with two phosphate molecules to form the adenine diphosphate (ADP)
- ADP synapse and ADP spins fast for the hydrogen to pass through the filter to exit the leaf
- The transformation of hydrogen slows down the spinning
- A 3rd phosphorus molecule comes in and takes the diphosphate, forming (ATP)
