Question

This molecule: 

• is contained in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts

• convert sunlight energy into ATP

• Reflects green wavelengths of light. _______?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Chloroplast is a membrane bound organelle present in the plant cells. Chloroplast is triple membrane structure. Chloroplast is used in the process of photosynthesis.

Chloroplast contains three membranes:

  1. Outer membrane
  2. Inner membrane
  3. Thylakoid membrane

Biology homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Step 2

Photosynthesis is scientifically divided into two reaction:

  1. Light reaction or Energy Transduction reaction
  2. Dark Reaction or Carbon Assimilation reaction

Light Reaction or Energy Transduction Reaction occurs inside the Thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. All the components and pigments of Light Reaction are present in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Light Reaction components are:

  1. Photosystem II
  2. Photosystem I

Light reaction Pigments are:

  1. Chlorophyll a
  2. Chlorophyll b
  3. Chlorophyll c
  4. Chlorophyll d
