Photosystems are the light-harvesting units of the thylakoid membrane.Each photosystem is a complex of proteins and other kinds of moleculea and includes an antenna consisting of a few hundred pigment molecules. When any antenna molecule absorbs a photon, the energy is transmitted from pigment molecule to pigment molecule until it reaches a particular chlorophyll a.Only this chlorophyll molecule is the reaction center and the first light-driven chemical reaction of photosynthesis occures.

How did Dalton know how many atoms were in a molecule?

Dalton determined the relative atomic masses of elements based on their chemical reactions. By analyzing the mass ratios involved in reactions, he was able to propose that all matter is made up of indivisible atoms, and he deduced the number of atoms in a molecule based on these atomic ratios and consistent patterns in reactions.


If molecules are made of atoms.And molecules are use in chemical reaction to make new elements. Does the elements in atoms also changes?

Molocules do not make new elements. Elements only change during atomic reactions, primarily nuclear fusion in stars. The atoms in a molecule are always the same, during chemical reactions they are only being rearranged. The oxygen you breathe in and the carbon dioxide that you breathe out, for example, are made of the same oxygen atoms.


What is a sugar molecule made during photosynthesis?

Glucose is the sugar molecule made during photosynthesis. It is produced from the combination of carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight, using the energy obtained from sunlight to drive the chemical reaction.
