Where are granum and thylakoids found?
Grana are stacks of thylakoids.They are in stroma.
Where in a chloroplasts do the light reactions of photosynthesis take place?
It takes place in thylakoids.They are membrane stacks
How does the Calvin cycle differ from the light-dependent reactions?
1. Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma and light- dependent reactions take place in the granum, also light is not required for all the reactions of Calvin cycle.2. Calvin cycle assimilates CO2 to form organic compounds whereas in light reactions photolysis of water leads the formation of energy rich inorganic compounds.
Where othe light-independent reactions occur?
stroma
What happens in the thylakoid membranes?
Thylakoids consist of a thylakoid membrane surrounding a thylakoid lumen. Chloroplast thylakoids frequently form stacks of disks referred to as grana (singular: granum). Grana are connected by intergrana or stroma thylakoids, which join granum stacks together as a single functional compartment.
Where are granum and thylakoids found?
Grana are stacks of thylakoids.They are in stroma.
Where is light-dependet reactions take place?
On thylakoid membranes
Where in a chloroplasts do the light reactions of photosynthesis take place?
It takes place in thylakoids.They are membrane stacks
How does light and dark reactions takes place?
The light dependent reaction occurs in the chloroplast. In the light dependent reaction, chlorophyll pigments absorb solar energy. This energy is then converted into a chemical form (not glucose). The water molecule is split into oxygen and hydrogen molecules. The dark reaction or the carbon fixation period occurs in the fluid matrix or stroma of chloroplast. The hydrogen product from the first reaction is combined with the carbon dioxide molecules to makes sugars. This results in the C3 or C4 cycle.
What reactions of photosynthesis take place in the stroma?
The light-independent reactions take place in the stroma; more specifically, the Calvin-Benson cycle.
What is the definition of granum?
GRANUM---- Granum is a membranous structure within the chloroplasts of plants and green algae that contains the chlorophyll and is the site of the light reactions of photosynthesis.
How does the Calvin cycle differ from the light-dependent reactions?
1. Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma and light- dependent reactions take place in the granum, also light is not required for all the reactions of Calvin cycle.2. Calvin cycle assimilates CO2 to form organic compounds whereas in light reactions photolysis of water leads the formation of energy rich inorganic compounds.
Are produced by reactions that take place in the thylakoids and are consumed by reactions in the stroma?
ATP and NADPH are produced by reactions in the thylakoids and are consumed by reactions in the stroma. The reason is because the reaction that takes place in the thylakoid is the light reaction and the one that takes place in the stroma is the light-independent reaction.
Where is the location of Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of the plant cell. There are stacks of thylakoids called granum, surrounded by a soultion called stroma in here. The first part of photosynthesis, known as The Light Reactions, takes place in the thylakoid membrane. The second part, the Calvin Cycle, takes place in the stroma.
The light independent reactions takes place in the?
stroma
Where othe light-independent reactions occur?
stroma
What structures do light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place?
Light-independent reactions take place outside the thylakoids, in the stroma. The stroma is the fluid part of the chloroplast. The thylakoids are an abundance of saclike photosynthetic membranes.
