Best Answer

Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which have chlorophyll in them. Chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight. From sunlight, green plants combine carbon dioxide and water to make sugar and oxygen.

What do light reactions of plants occur?

is this asking where they occur or when they occur?anyway, light reactions take place in the stroma, which are in the chloroplast of plant cell. these are the little things that make plants green. this type of reaction can only take place in plant and some protist cells, because photosynthesis does not occur in any other kind of cell. (light reactions are a part of photosynthesis.)

What type of cells carry out photosynthesis?

In a leaf photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll (middle leaf), mostly in the upper layer of palisade cells but also in the spongy layer.The plant cells don't actually carry out photosynthesis - it takes place in the Chloroplasts.Extra CreditChloroplasts maintain a lot of similarities with photosynthetic bacteria, including a circular chromosome and prokaryotic ribosomes. This has lead to the endosymbiotic theory that suggests that photosynthetic bacteria were acquired by primeval eukaryotic cells which went on to become plant cells.When a plant cell divides, it's Chloroplasts divide taking their unique DNA along with them, Mitochondria behave in a similar fashion.

What type of cells is chloroplasts found in?

Plant cells and algae have chloroplasts. They make the plant green and help in photosynthesis.


What cells have chloroplast?

The chloroplast, an organelle, is found on plant cells and other eukaryotics organism that conducts photosynthesis.(they aren't in sperm cells)


What type of cells do the mitochondria take place in?

Mitochondria is in both animal cells, and plant cells. The mitochondria is the part of the cell that is like the small power house in the animal/plant cell.


What plant cells purpose?

One type ofLamellae is the thylakoid membrane. Since the thylakoid membrane is where photosynthesis takes place then the lamellae are vital to plants. So to answer your question, it is the site of photosynthesis the light dependent reaction to be more exact.
