Photosynthesis
Electrons generally move from a more negative (lower) or less positive redox potential to less negative or a more positive (higher) redox potential, reflecting a downhill energy flow. However, in the Z-scheme of photosynthesis, there are two key points where light energy is used to excite electrons, allowing them to move uphill to a more positive redox potential.
