A thylakoid is a membrane compartment that is bound inside the chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. It is the site of the light-dependent reactions for the process of photosynthesis
What else can I help you with?
Function of thylakoid membrains?
see this is what happend the cell breaks down and turn into thylakoid membrains
How does the electron transport system function?
thylakoid membrane
What is the function of the proton pumps in the thylakoid membranes?
Proton pumps in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts create a proton gradient by pumping H+ ions from the stroma into the thylakoid lumen during photosynthesis. This gradient is utilized by ATP synthase to produce ATP through chemiosmosis.
The function of the electron transport proteins in the thyakoid membranes is?
The function of the electron transport proteins in the thylakoid membranes is to pump hydrogens into the thylakoid space for later generation of ATP. This process is called chemiosmosis.
What is the function of a lumen?
The thylakoid lumen is the compartment bounded by the thylakoid membrane. It plays a vital role for photophosphorylation during photosynthesis. During the light-dependent reaction, protons are pumped across the thylakoid membrane into the lumen making it acidic down to pH 4.
What is the difference between the structure and function of grana and thylakoid in photosynthesis?
The grana are stacks of thylakoid membranes in chloroplasts. The thylakoids contain chlorophyll and other pigments that capture light energy for photosynthesis. The grana's structure allows for efficient light absorption, while the thylakoids' function is to convert light energy into chemical energy for the plant.
Is chlorophyll found in the thylakoid membrane or in the thylakoid space?
Chlorophyll is found in the thylakoid membrane.
Is the stroma located within the thylakoid membrane?
No, the stroma is not located within the thylakoid membrane. The stroma is the fluid-filled space outside the thylakoid membranes in the chloroplast.
How many phospholipid bilayers separate the stroma from the thylakoid lumen?
There is only 1 phospholipid bilayer that separates the stroma from the thylakoid lumen.
What is the process that takes place in a chloroplast and the mitochondrion?
Dark reaction take place in stroma.Light reaction take place in thylakoid membranes.
What are the flatened sacks in the chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll?
granum = stacks of thylakoid the thylakoid are the flattened sacks
Where is chlorophyll found in chloroplast?
chlorophyll molecules sit on the outside of the thylakoid sacs.
