What does light do when it strikes the chlorophyll molecules of photosystems I and II?
Light causes glucose to be synthesized directly inside the chlorophyll molecules of the photosystems.
Light causes electrons to get excited (gain energy) and travel down the electron transport chain embedded in the thylakoid membrane.
Light causes the conversion of water into carbon dioxide, oxygen, and electrons.
Light directly causes carbon dioxide to attach to RuBP during the carbon fixation stage of the Calvin Cycle.
