Along with plants and algae which organisms can photosynthesis occur?
Photosynthesis can also occur in certain types of bacteria, such as cyanobacteria. These organisms are capable of converting sunlight into energy through the process of photosynthesis, similar to plants and algae.
Location where photosynthesis occurs?
Photosynthesis takes place in the cells of green plants. The process of photosynthesis is carried out in the chloroplasts. More specifically, the light reaction takes place in the thylakoid membrane, while the dark reaction (light independent) takes place in the stroma.
Cells that are specialized for photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts are the specialized organelles within plant cells that are responsible for photosynthesis. These organelles contain chlorophyll, the pigment that captures light energy for the process of photosynthesis. The cells in the leaves of plants, particularly in the palisade mesophyll layer, are where you would find a high concentration of chloroplasts for optimal photosynthetic activity.
What is light in photosynthesis?
In photosynthesis, light is a form of energy that is absorbed by chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of plant cells. This light energy is essential in the process of converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
What captures energy from sunlight?
The chloroplasts in the cells capture the sunlight. Chloroplasts contain the chemical chlorophyll, which gather light energy, kind of like how solar plates work. The sunlight energy is then used along with water and carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis. I hope this answers your question!
What organelle in a cabbage is used during photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts are the main organelles used, along with ribosomes, nuclei, and the endoplasmic reticulum.
What are of photosynthesis reactant?
carbon dioxide and water (with sunlight and chlorophyll - in chloroplasts)
What does chloroplasts enable plant cells to do?
Chloroplasts have a green pigment called chlorophyll (hence why plants are green). They are one of the unique organelles which are most abundant in the palisade mesophyll layers of leaves where photosynthesis occurs. For this to happen, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water is required along with this pigment chlorophyll to react in order to produce glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen. the glucose is then transported via the phloem and stored as starch. Hope this helps

Which is a characteristic of a member of the kingdom that distinguishes them from members of the animal kingdom?
A plant cell's cell structure is slightly different- they have a cell wall along with a cell membrane and chloroplasts (photosynthesis)
What Photosynthetic organ?
A photosynthetic organism is one which engages in photosynthesis, which is the creation of sugar using the energy of sunlight along with the catalyst chlorophyll, and using carbon dioxide and water. These are green plants, as well as cyanobacteria.
What is light in photosynthesis?
In photosynthesis, light is a form of energy that is absorbed by chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of plant cells. This light energy is essential in the process of converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
Role of chloroplast?
Chloroplasts are cellular organelles found in plants where photosynthesis takes place. They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures sunlight to produce energy in the form of ATP and sugars. This energy is then used by the plant for growth, development, and reproduction.
Why were the chloroplasts moving in the elodea cells?
When looking at the elodea under the microscope notice the chloroplasts appear to be only along sides of the cell. This due to the large, fluid filled, membrane bounded central vacuole which pushes the cytoplasm against the cell walls.
Is chlorophyll or chloroplasts in animal or plant cell?
Chloroplasts along with cell walls can only be found in plant cells.
