one more thing before you go... lets find out how much you learned about this topic! this will help us personalize your learning experience, and dont worry, it wont affect your grades. question 4 of 7 as electrons are passed through the electron transport chain during the light - dependent reactions, what molecule serves as the final electron acceptor? oxygen water nadp+

Explanation:

During the light - dependent reactions of photosynthesis, in non - cyclic electron flow, electrons are passed through the electron transport chain. The final electron acceptor is \(NADP^{+}\). When \(NADP^{+}\) accepts electrons (along with \(H^{+}\)), it is reduced to \(NADPH\). Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in cellular respiration (in the electron transport chain of mitochondria). Water is not an electron acceptor in the light - dependent reactions; rather, water is split (photolysis) to release electrons, protons (\(H^{+}\)), and oxygen.

Answer:

C. \(NADP^{+}\)
