A schematic diagram of natural photosynthesis showing light absorption, charge separation, water oxidation and fuel production. The path of the yellow line indicates the approximate energy of the electrons in analogy to the Z-scheme. In recent years, progress has been made in elucidating the structures of many of the proteins involved in photosynthesis. This, in turn, helps us to understand and replicate their functions.
