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.


Where in the chloroplast is the H plus concentration highest?

The chloroplast is the hydrogen ion concentration is highest in the spaces of its thylakoid membrane. The ions get pushed into these spaces during the transportation of electrons.


Is chlorophyll found in the thylakoid membrane or in the thylakoid space?

Chlorophyll is found in the thylakoid membrane.


What part of the chloroplast is split. forming oxygen?

The thylakoid space uses photolysis to break water into hydrogen ions and oxygen.


What is a thylakoid?

The thylakoid space is the lumenal space bound by the membrane of the thylakoid organelle in a chloroplast. The thylakoid membranes lining the space contains pigments that absorb light to perform photosynthesis.


Why does the pH of the cell become more basic during photosynthesis?

During the light reactions of photosynthesis, protons (H+) are ferried into the thylakoid space using the energy from the excited electrons in Photosystems 680 and 700. H+ causes buildup of hydronium (H3O+) ions in water, which are acidic.


Where else in chloroplasts does chemiosmosis translocates protons from?

stroma, after water is photolysised on thylakoid membrane


Which side of the membrane is water split?

Thylakoid Space


Does ATP formation happen in the stroma or thylakoid space?

It happens in both places depending on the reaction.


What side of the membrane does ATP formation happen?

Thylakoid space.


What chloroplast structure are chlorophyll molecules found?

The chlorophyll pigment is located within the thylakoid membrane and the space between the thylakoid and the chloroplast membrane.


Were does the energy to move hydrogen ions across the thylakoid membrane come from?

where does the energy used to establish the proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane come from? In other words, from splitting of water. well that's not what he said but there you go.
