occurs in two steps. First, 7-dehydrocholesterol is
photolyzed by
ultraviolet light in a 6-electron

ultraviolet (UV)
radiation by the
ozone layer,
where ozone is
exothermically photolyzed into
oxygen in a
cyclical fashion. This

activation of the
transducin molecule by rhodopsin.
Interaction with
photolyzed rhodopsin opens up the GTP-binding site to
allow for
rapid exchange of...

oxygen atoms and molecules, and UV radiation: An
oxygen molecule is
split (
photolyzed) by
higher frequency UV
light (top end of UV-B, UV-C and above) into two...
- ozone-poor air out of the
troposphere and into the
stratosphere where the sun
photolyzes oxygen molecules and
turns them into ozone. Then, the ozone-rich air is...
