How does the electron transport system function?

thylakoid membrane


When and where does the electron transport take place?

The location of the electron transport system depends on the cell type.~The electron transport system is embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondria for animal, plant and fungus cells.~The electron transport system is also in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts in plant cells.


What system transport?

it's a chain of electron carriers in the cristae of mitochondria and thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts.


What best describes electron transfer system?

A chain in which electrons from the photons of sunlight energy are passed down the thylakoid membranes to drive the production of ATP by H+ gradients, etc.


Where is the electron transport systems used to make ATP located?

The electron transport system used for ATP synthesis happens in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion and the proteins embedded within that membrane.

Is the energy from sunlight trapped by chlorophyll located in the electron transport chain?

No, the energy trapped by chlorophyll is located in photosystem I and II. Light energy is first captured by PS II and an electron is then transferred to a primary electron acceptor known as plastoquinone. Pq then transfers it's electron to the cytochrome complex that transfers its energy to the electron transport system which passes it on to plastocyanin which in turn gives its electron to PS I where it is re-excited by photons. This process is known as the electron transport but the energy captured by chlorophyll is located in the photosystems.


What is the membrane system found within chloroplasts that contains the compounds for photosynthesis?

thylakoid


Where does a Electron Transport Chain happen?

In aerobic respiration, electron transport occurs inside the mitochondria. In photosynthesis, electron transport occurs inside the chloroplasts.


Where does the energy to make ATP from ADP come from?

photosinthesis During the light reactions of photosynthesis, water is split to create free protons (hydrogen minus an electron) within the thylakoid. The increasing number of protons also transported across the thylakoid membrane by an electron transport system, establish a concentration gradient where many hydrogen are present inside the thylakoid, as compared to the number outside. The diffusion (chemiosmosis) of these protons through the enzyme ATP synthase provides the energy needed to allow for the condensation reaction which fixes the third phosphate group onto the ADP molecule.


What are the little stacks of disks that make up the the thylakoid membrane system?

They are called granum, plural: grana
