Question

difference between photolysis and photophosphorylation end product


​

Answer 1

Answer:

Photolysis (also called photodissociation and photodecomposition) is a chemical reaction in which an inorganic chemical (or an organic chemical) is broken down by photons and is the interaction of one or more photons with one target molecule.

Oxidative phosphorylation involves the reduction of O2 to H2O with electrons donated by NADH and FADH2, and occurs equally well in light or darkness. Photophosphorylation involves the oxidation of H2O to O2, with NADP+ as electron acceptor, and it is absolutely dependent on light.
