Answer:

Explanation:

Photolysis is the breakdown of water molecules into protons, electrons and oxygen in the presence of light. It occurs during photophosphorylation of non-cyclic. The protons are often used to decrease NADP and photosystem II is fed with electrons.

For example, in photosynthesis water is broken down to oxygen by photolysis.

Answer:

Photolysis is the splitting of water molecules in the presence of light into proton, electron and oxygen. It takes place during non-cyclic photophosphorylation. The protons are used to reduce NADP and electrons are fed to photosystem II. Oxygen is released as a waste product.

Photolysis of water observes release of oxygen, as a by-product, and release of hydrogen. During photosynthesis when chlorophyll is left by its electrons, the place where the electrons were is left with a hole, which is filled by oxidised water. When this oxidised water splits, it releases oxygen and hydrogen.
