Photosystem

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process of food production by plants, to feed themselves, grow and develop. It is the conversion of inorganic matter into organic matter thanks to the energy provided by light. In this process, light energy is transformed into stable chemical energy, with NADPH (nicotine adenine dinucleotide phosphate) and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) being the first molecules in which this chemical energy is stored. Subsequently, the reducing power of NADPH and the energy potential of the phosphate group of ATP are used for the synthesis of carbohydrates from the reduction of carbon dioxide.

To carry out photosynthesis, plants need chlorophyll, which is a green substance in their leaves. It is the photoreceptor pigment responsible for the first stage in the transformation of sunlight energy into chemical energy.  So, the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis is the absorption of photons of light with the consequent excitation of an electron. This excited electron yields its energy, returning to the normal state, to some auxiliary pigment (sometimes other chlorophylls), where the phenomenon is repeated. Im the end the excited electron facilitates the reduction of a molecule. On the other hand, there are accessory pigments that absorb energy that chlorophyll is unable to absorb. Chlorophyll is found in specific organelles, the chloroplasts, associated with lipids and lipoproteins. And it is responsible for the green color of plants.

Photosystems are the protein complexes located in the membranes of these autotrophic organisms (that are able to perform photosynthesis) where photosynthetic pigments, such as chlorophyll, are grouped together. So, these molecules are capable of capturing light energy from the sun and transforming it into useful energy.

Answer from: Quest

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
