In the process of photosynthesis, the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP using the energy of sunlight is called photophosphorylation. Cyclic photophosphorylation occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Only two sources of energy are available to living organisms: sunlight and reduction-oxidation reactions.

The process described above, in which electrons flow in a line (from water to NADPH) , is called non-cyclic photophosphorylation. (Photophosphorylation = light-driven addition of a phosphate group to ADP, making ATP).

Explanation:

_____PHOTOPHISPHORYLATION__

IT REFERS TO THE USE OF LIGHT ENERGY FROM PHOTOSYNTHESIS TO ULTIMATELY PROVIDE THE ENERGY FROM ADP TO ATP THUS, REPLENISHING THE UNIVERSE ENERGY CURRENCY OF THE ORGANISMS.

CYLIC PHOTOPHISPHORYLATION OCCURS IN BOTH AEROBIC AND AEROBIC CONDITIONS.

ATP STANDS FOR ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE

ADP STANDS ADENOSINE DIPHOSPHATE.

ATP ARE SYNTHESIS BY MITOCHONDRIA, WHICH ARE KNOWN AS THE POWER HOUSE OF THE CELL.

TWO SOURCES OF ENERGY AVAILABLE IN ORGANISMS ARE :

1. SUNLIGHT

2. OXIDATION - REDUCTION REACTION
