Why is Photosystem II before Photosystem I

1 Answer

6 votes

Answer:

Photosystems I and II are named such because Photosystem I was actually discovered (and named) before Photosystem II, even though Photosystem II comes before Photosystem I during photosynthesis (i.e., Photosystem II precedes Photosystem I in the electron flow of photophosphorylation).
