Definitions:

Light Energy

The form of energy visible to the human eye that is emitted by the sun and other sources, crucial for photosynthesis in plants.

Electromagnetic Spectrum

The entire span of electromagnetic radiation, extending from gamma rays to radio waves.

Cyclic Electron Transport

In photosynthesis, the cyclic flow of electrons through photosystem I; ATP is formed by chemiosmosis, but no photolysis of water occurs, and O2 and NADPH are not produced. Compare with noncyclic electron transport.

Noncyclic Electron Transport

In photosynthesis, the linear flow of electrons, produced by photolysis of water, through photosystems II and I; results in the formation of ATP (by chemiosmosis), NADPH, and O2. Compare with cyclic electron transport.
