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+.
4. the PS I downhill to the acceptor, down the electron transport chain to PS II, transferred to another acceptor after excitation, and finally uphill to NADP+  reducing it to NADPH + H+.
