Parent topics
- Chloroplast [r]: The green organelles found in many higher plant cells and protists. Internal thylakoid membranes contain chlorophyll where photosynthesis takes place. [e]
- Organelle [r]: Specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own lipid membrane, found in all eukaryotic cells. [e]
- Arthur Meyer (botanist) [r]: (1850-1922), German botanist and cell biologist, described chloroplasts and the chlorophyll-rich thylakoid grana. [e]
Subtopics
- Granum [r]: A stack of disks of thylakoid membranes in plant chloroplasts, where photosynthesis occurs. [e]
- Lamellae [r]: Extensions of thylakoid membranes of the grana inside eukaryotic chloroplasts, linking the grana and, by so doing, linking the thylakoid membrane lumens. [e]
- Light-harvesting complex [r]: The supercomplex of subunit proteins and pigments that gather light and direct the energy to the photosynthetic reaction centre in a photosystem. [e]
- Photosynthetic reaction centre [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Thylakoid lumen [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photolysis [r]: Chemical process by which molecules are broken down through the absorption of light. [e]
- Plastocyanin [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Thylakoid membrane [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photosystem II [r]: A multi-subunit protein pigment complex embedded in thylakoid membranes, mediating the initial light harvesting and electron transfer steps in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria. [e]
- Plastoquinone [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cytochrome b6f complex [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photosystem I [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Ferredoxin [r]: Add brief definition or description
- ATP synthase [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Light reactions [r]: Chemical reactions that occur in the stroma of the chloroplast during photosynthesis and use the ATP and NADPH synthesized during the light-dependent reactions to fix carbon atoms from CO2. [e]
- Photophosphorylation [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Adenosine triphosphate [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Stroma [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photosynthesis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Chemiosmosis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Electrochemical gradient [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Electron transport chain [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photon [r]: Add brief definition or description
