The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Photosystems**: - Photosystems are the functional units of photosynthesis in plants. They are responsible for absorbing light energy and converting it into chemical energy. 2. **Identifying the Types of Photosystems**: - There are two types of photosystems in plants: Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II). Both are located in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. 3. **Identifying the Reaction Centers**: - Each photosystem has a specific reaction center that absorbs light at a particular wavelength. - For Photosystem I, the reaction center is designated as P700, which absorbs light at a wavelength of 700 nanometers. - For Photosystem II, the reaction center is designated as P680, which absorbs light at a wavelength of 680 nanometers. 4. **Answering the Question**: - The question specifically asks for the reaction center of Photosystem II (PS II). - Therefore, the reaction center of PS II is P680. ### Final Answer: The reaction center of PS II is P680. ---
