On which of the following component of chloroplast chlorophyll is arranged?
Correct answer: C. Thylakoids
- A. Cell membrane
- B. Matrix
- C. Thylakoids
- D. Stroma
Explanation
Chlorophyll is embedded in the photosynthetic membranes of thylakoids, where it captures light energy for the light-dependent reactions. The stroma contains enzymes for carbon fixation but does not arrange the chlorophyll molecules into the light-absorbing membrane system. A student may choose stroma because it is also a major chloroplast component, but chlorophyll is associated with thylakoid membranes.
