What is the function of the thylakoids in a chloroplast?
Thylakoids are the site of light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. They're electron carriers.
What is the role of molecules such as nadh nadh and fadh in metabolic?
NADH and FADH are Coenzymes which act as carriers of electrons, protons, and energy in metabolism.
In eukaryotes the electron transport chain is composed of a series of electron carriers located in the what of the mitochondrion?
The electron carriers are located in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. In the prokaryotes, the electron transport chain is located in the cell membrane.
Does cellular respiration use NADPH as its electron carrier?
No. Cellular respiration uses NADH as an electron carrier. NADPH is used in photosynthesis.
What are fadh2 and nadh classified as?
Electron carriers??!
What are two high energy electron carriers used in cellular respiration that are not used in photosynthesis?
What are the two new high energy electron carriers used during cellular respiration that are different than the one used for photosynthesis.
Why are Electron carriers important in photosynthesis?
why are electrons important to photosynthesis.
What is the function of the thylakoids in a chloroplast?
Thylakoids are the site of light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. They're electron carriers.
Why do high-energy electrons need carrier molecules?
The energy in light raises some of the electrons in chlorophyll to higher energy levels. These high-energy electrons are used in photosynthesis. Electron carriers are used to transport the electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules during photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis carrier molecules?
A carrier molecule is a compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them to another molecule. The carrier molecule in photosynthesis is NADP or the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
Electrons are brought to the electron transport by what high energy electron carriers?
NADP if photosynthesis. NAD or FAD if cellular respiration.
How is the function of NAD plus similar to that of NADP plus?
NAD is an electron/H carrier in respiration and NADP is an electron/H carrier in photosynthesis.
How does water relate to photosynthesis?
Water is a reactant or an "imput" to photosynthesis. It's used to as a electron donor.
What occurs in a series of electron carriers?
The Electron Transport Chain
What is the role of molecules such as nadh nadh and fadh in metabolic?
NADH and FADH are Coenzymes which act as carriers of electrons, protons, and energy in metabolism.
What does a photo-system do for photosynthesis?
Photo systems utilize light to energize an electron which is then used in an electron transport chain to create high energy molecules for use in the dark reactions of photosynthesis.
What happen to the light energy that is trapped by the chloroplast during the first stage of photosynthesis?
Light energy is not exactly trapped. The light energy excites the electron in the reaction centres of photosystem I and photosystem II. The electron excites and transfers to the electron transport chain ( chain of electron carriers), this produces ATP. Then the electron of photosystem II is transferred by photosystem I and the electron of the photosystem I is used with H+ and NADP to form NADPH. Photosystem II gets back an electron from photolysis of water.
