Sites1.Light dependent reactions occur in the grana, which are stacks of thylakoid membranes. The large surface area of these membranes maximises light absorption
2. Light independent reactions occur in the fluid stroma. This contains the enzymes of the Calvin cycle
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts and involves two distinct stages:
What is oxidation and reduction?
Label the key features.
Explain the key features.
Key terms: oxidation, reduction, photosystem, proton, electron, photolysis
Thylakoid space space
The small space within the grana of the thylakoid membranes ensures accumulation of protons during chemiosmosis
