The phosphorylation is the process, where the ADP is changed to ATP by using the energy of sunlight
Explanation:
In the photosynthesis, the phosphorylation is the process where the ADP is changed to ATP by using the energy of sunlight is called photophosphorylation. The photophosphorylation is of two types.
In cyclic photophosphorylation, the electrons come back to chloroplast molecules, while in the non-cyclic photophosphorylation, the splitting of water provides the electrons to the chloroplast and produces oxygen as by product. In the non-ncyclic photophosphorylation produces NADPH as well as ATP.
