A ___12___is a collection of chlorophyll molecules that serve as the light collecting unit of photosynthesis. These chlorophyll molecules are found embedded in the ___13___membranes .
Let’s start with photosystem II. Chlorophyll molecules in photosystem II absorb the ___14___from the sun. The ___15___ of these chlorophyll molecules become very excited. The ___16___are boosted to a higher energy level and are passed to an ___17___. The electrons that were lost from these molecules of ___18___ must now be replaced. Molecules of ___19___ are split and the ___20___ from this are used to replaced the electrons that were lost. ___21___ from the water is considered a waste product and is ___22___. The high energy electrons now move down the ___23___ as they are passed from ___24___ to ___25___.

ATP is actually formed when ___33___ ions flow through ___34___ from an area of ___35___ concentration inside the thylakoid to an area of ___36___ concentration outside the thylakoid. As hydrogen passes through the enzyme ___37___ the protein spins, creating energy. This energy is used to convert ___38___ to ___39___ Hydrogen ions must now be pumped back inside the ___40___ from the ___41___. These will be pumped against the concentration gradient and will require ___42___. The energy for this process comes from ___43___.
