Question

what is the first, most immediate, thing that happens when light strikes a chlorophyll molecule?
○ glucose is produced.
○ carbon dioxide is produced.
○ oxygen is produced.
○ electrons are energized.

Explanation:

When light strikes a chlorophyll molecule, the first and most immediate event is that electrons are energized. Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which excites electrons within the chlorophyll molecule. The production of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and glucose occur later in the photosynthesis process and are not the first - immediate events upon light striking chlorophyll.

Answer:

Electrons are energized.
