In the Z-scheme, transfer of electrons starts from:
| 1. | the PS II uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally downhill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
| 2. | the PS II downhill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS I, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally uphill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
| 3. | the PS I uphill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS II, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally downhill to NADP+ reducing it to NADPH + H+. |
