-P680⁺ is said to be the strongest biological oxidizing agent. Why?
A)It is the receptor for the most excited electron in either photosystem.
B)It is the molecule that transfers electrons to plastoquinone (Pq)of the electron transfer system.
C)NADP reductase will then catalyze the shift of the electron from Fd to NADP⁺ to reduce it to NADPH.
D)This molecule results from the transfer of an electron to the primary electron acceptor of photosystem II and strongly attracts another electron.
E)This molecule is found far more frequently among bacteria as well as in plants and plantlike Protists.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

P680⁺ is the strongest biological oxidizing agent because it results from the transfer of an electron to the primary electron acceptor of photosystem II and strongly attracts another electron. This allows for the efficient transfer of electrons through the electron transfer system, leading to the production of ATP and NADPH.
