Chlorophyll, which is present in the photosystems, soaks up light energy. The energized electrons are then used to make NADPH. The electron transport chain is a series of molecules that accept or donate electrons easily. ... When hydrogen ions move through the protein and down the electron transport chain, ATP is created.
