Chloroplasts Flashcards
What Is The Stroma And What Does It Contain?
It is the thick fluid, similar to cyctoplasm, that contains ribosomes, ATP, enzymes used for respiration and the genome.
When starched together, what do thylakoids make?
Grana.
What happens at the grana?
They actively fix O2.
When grana are not fixing O2, what happens to their structure?
They disassemble.
Where might you find a chromoplast?
In a red pepper.
What kind of plastids to potatoes have?
Amyloplasts.
What are some plastids derived from?
Luecoplasts.
Do all chloroplasts come with the same structure?
No, their thylakoids can be differently structured.
Where are he stromal lamellae found?
They are the interconnecting sections between grana.
How do red algaes thylakoids appear?
They are flattened sacs, with one membrane only one layer think, with a granular surface, made of accessory pigments.
How many membranes do Dinoflagellate chloroplasts have?
3, they appear in a triples membrane, found in groups of 3 and are unappressed.
What are the two reactants of photosynthesis?
Water and CO2
What are he three products of photosynthesis?
Glucose, O2 and H2O
In photosynthesis does water gain or lose electrons?
Loses, it is oxidised.
How is photosynthesis endergonic?
It requires the energy from photons.
