Chloroplast Structure and Function

Flashcards covering the vocabulary related to chloroplast structure, membranes, and enzymes as described in the lecture notes.

Talicoids

Structures filled with chlorophyll which captures sunlight to introduce light reaction or photosynthesis.

Chlorophyll

Substance found in talicoids that captures sunlight to introduce light reaction or photosynthesis.

Membrane of chloroplasts

A semipammable membrane across which materials like $CO_2$ and oxygen can easily diffuse.

Liquid stoma

A liquid within the chloroplast associated with the increasing of surface area.

Clear membrane of chloroplast

A membrane that allows light to pass through chloroplast so that the chlorophyll absorbs light energy to produce light dependent reaction.

Rebiscoenzyme

An enzyme found in the stroma involved in catalyzing multiple reactions in the light independent reaction.

Stroma

A medium containing enzymes that can catalyst multiple reaction involved in light independent reaction.
