Question

Name the structural unit of photosynthesis?​

Answer 1

Q) What is the Structural Unit of Photosynthesis ?

Answer :-

The structural unit of Photosynthesis is The Thylakoid.

More info on Thylakoid :-

• A Thylakoid is a membrane - bound structure that contains the chlorophyll used to absorb light and used it for biochemical reactions.
• It is made up of protein membrane which contains pigments, chlorophyll and membrane lipids.
• This high complex membrane , with the help of the pigments harvests light , synthesis and exports ATP molecule for energy.

Answer 2

The structural unit of photosynthesis is chlorophyll. Photosynthesis, process by which green plants and certain other organisms use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. The process of photosynthesis occurs when green plants use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) into carbohydrates. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, a photosynthetic pigment of the plant, while air containing carbon dioxide and oxygen enters the plant through the leaf stomata.
