Photoionization occurs when chlorophyll at the Photosystem II (PSII) reaction center absorbs light energy, exciting an electron pair that is then emitted and enters the electron transport chain (ETC).
- chlorophyll at PSII reaction centre absorbs light energy - electron pair is excited and emitted - enter ETC
