  2. Thylakoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thylakoid

    Grana thylakoids and stroma thylakoids can be distinguished by their different protein composition. Grana contribute to chloroplasts' large surface area to volume ratio. A recent electron tomography study of the thylakoid membranes has shown that the stroma lamellae are organized in wide sheets perpendicular to the grana stack axis and form ...

  3. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    The process of photosynthesis provides the main input of free energy into the biosphere, and is one of four main ways in which radiation is important for plant life. [ 115 ] The radiation climate within plant communities is extremely variable, in both time and space.

    Experts say adopting a plant-based, fiber-rich diet that focuses on whole foods can pave the way to a longer, healthier life. Start by making just two simple meal swaps each week to kick off your ...

  5. Chloroplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloroplast

    Chloroplasts, containing thylakoids, visible in the cells of Rosulabryum capillare, a type of moss. A chloroplast (/ ˈ k l ɔːr ə ˌ p l æ s t,-p l ɑː s t /) [1] [2] is a type of organelle known as a plastid that conducts photosynthesis mostly in plant and algal cells.

  6. Stroma (fluid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroma_(fluid)

    Stroma, in botany, refers to the colorless fluid surrounding the grana within the chloroplast. [1]Within the stroma are grana (stacks of thylakoid), the sub-organelles where photosynthesis is started [2] before the chemical changes are completed in the stroma.

  7. Marine primary production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_primary_production

    For example, phytoplankton may alter resource allocation between the P-rich biosynthetic apparatus, N-rich light-harvesting apparatus, and C-rich energy storage reserves. [93] Under a typical future warming scenario, the global ocean is expected to undergo changes in nutrient availability, temperature, and irradiance . [ 94 ]

  8. Red algae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_algae

    Chloroplasts probably evolved following an endosymbiotic event between an ancestral, photosynthetic cyanobacterium and an early eukaryotic phagotroph. [17] This event (termed primary endosymbiosis) is at the origin of the red and green algae (including the land plants or Embryophytes which emerged within them) and the glaucophytes, which together make up the oldest evolutionary lineages of ...

  9. Phycobilisome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phycobilisome

    This reversible process is known as complementary chromatic adaptation. It is the component of photosynthetic system of cyanobacteria, as a particle with which various structures are linked (i.e. thylakoid membrane, etc.).
