During the process of Photosystem I, NADP+ is changed into NADPH . NADPH has a neutral charge. What reactants are necessary to form the product?(1 point) Responses an electron and two hydrogen ions an electron and two hydrogen ions an electron and a hydrogen ion an electron and a hydrogen ion two electrons and a hydrogen ion two electrons and a hydrogen ion two electrons and two hydrogen ions

1 answer

To form NADPH from NADP+, you need two electrons and one proton (hydrogen ion). Therefore, the correct response is:

two electrons and a hydrogen ion.

However, since NADPH is produced from NADP+ and requires the reduction process, it is often simplified to requiring a specific number of electrons and protons. In a more complete context, it typically involves combining NADP+ with the electrons from Photosystem I and protons (H+) to convert NADP+ into NADPH.
