Answer:

D. Photosystems I and II function here.

What are thylakoids?

A flattened sac or vesicle lined with a pigmented membrane that is the site of photosynthesis, in plants and algae occurring in interconnected stacks constituting a granum of chloroplast, and in other photosynthesizing organisms occurring either singly or as a part of the cell membrane or other structure.  

The thylakoid system is a collection of membranous sacks called thylakoids. The chlorophyll is found in the thylakoids and is the sight for the process of light reactions of photosynthesis to happen. The thylakoids are arranged in stacks known as grana. Each granum contains around 10-20 thylakoids.

What is photosynthesis?

The complex process by which carbon dioxide, water, and certain inorganic salts are converted into carbohydrates by green plants, algae, and certain bacteria, using energy from the sun and chlorophyll.

Photosynthesis l and ll are

  • 1=light reactions/light dependent reactions.
  • 2=the calvin cycle/light independent reactions.

The Calvin Cycle is a biochemical pathway of photosynthesis in which carbon dioxide is converted into glucose using ATP and NADPH.
