draw and name the structure of the chlorophyll
Grana , Lamellae , starch granules , Thylakoids
Explain how the presence of these structures increases efficiency of photosynthesis
It increases the surface area
why do see colours ? In plant, etc
there are different types of pigments in different plants. Light wavelengths that ARE NOT absorbed, they are reflected.
Chlorophyll a and b do no absorb green light / Carotenoids do to absorb red light
Accessory pigments surroundings the chlorophyll absorb different
what is a photosystem ?
the pigments are arranged in light harvesting clusters.
what wavelengths does both chlorophyll and carotenoids absorb ?
Both absorb wavelengths in the blue-violent region of the light spectrum.
what wavelengths does chlorophyll absorb but carotenoids doesn't?
Also absorb in the red region of the light spectrum.
what is in the photosystem ?
Primary pigment reaction and accessory pigments.
what is the primary pigments reactions ?
it contains chlorophyll a and b and carotenoids.
what is the accessory pigments ?
it enables absorption of more wavelengths of light, known as the 2nd pigments
what does both photosystem II and I does ?
It involves in absorbing light for the LDR of photosynthesis.
