How do cells replace the energy-rich ATP that is destroyed in energy-coupled reactions?

Both chloroplasts use light energy to synthesize ATP and mitochondria synthesize ATP using energy that's realeased by oxidizing sugars and fats.


Which part of a chloroplast is not involved in the light reactions?

The stroma is the part of a chloroplast not involved in the light reactions. Instead, the stroma is where the Calvin cycle takes place, utilizing the ATP and NADPH produced during the light reactions to synthesize glucose. The light reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes, where sunlight is captured and converted into chemical energy.


Is it true that the region of atp synthase that catalyzes the production of atp from ADP and inorganic phosphate spans the chloroplast membrane?

No, the region of ATP synthase that catalyzes the production of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate spans the inner mitochondrial membrane, not the chloroplast membrane. In chloroplasts, ATP synthase is located in the thylakoid membrane and is responsible for generating ATP during photosynthesis.


Are grana the site of ATP production within chloroplast?

No, grana are not the site of ATP production within a chloroplast. ATP is primarily produced in the stroma of the chloroplast through the process of photosynthesis. Grana, on the other hand, contain chlorophyll pigments and are responsible for capturing light energy used in the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.


Where in the chloroplast are ATP and NADPH formed during the light reactions?

The light dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid of the chloroplast. ATP is formed in the ATP synthase protein by the assistance of the hydrogen gradient produced in the electron transport chain.

Are ATP and CO2 used only in the chloroplasts to make carbohydrates?

CO2 is only used in the chloroplast to synthesize carbohydrates. ATP, on the other hand, is used for several other reactions other than carbohydrate synthesis.


What is chloroplast and mitochondria?

Chloroplast is known as the kitchen of cell not Mitochondria. Chloroplast have a pigment called chlorophyll and they are involved in the photosynthesis of food that's why known as kitchen of cell. Mitochondria is known as power house of cell. They use carbohydrates and fats present in the cell to CO2 and water vapour. Oxidation releases energy, a portion of which is used to form ATP. Since the mitochondria synthesize, energy-rich compounds (ATP), they are known as 'power house ' of cell.


What happens when you inject the muscle with artificial ATP?

I don't believe we synthesize artificial atp.


What part of the chloroplast create ATP?

The thylakoids.


Do mitochondria synthesize hemoglobin?

No of course they do not. They are ATP generators


What is the fuctionof chloroplast?

Photosynthesis is carried out.Also synthesize some proteins and photorespire.


Organelle that generates atp?

In plant cells, the chloroplast generates the atp. In animal cells, the mitochondria generates the atp.

What is the functon of chloroplast?

Chloroplast are only in plant cells, they use photosynthesis to make ATP which is energy for the cell.
