Photosynthesis overview and chloroplast structure
• (d) state that in plants photosynthesis is a two-stage process taking place in chloroplasts;
• (e) explain, with the aid of diagrams and electron micrographs, how the structure of chloroplasts enables them to carry out their functions;

Stages of photosynthesis...
• Light harvesting
• Light independent
• Light dependent

Summary test...• Leaves are the main site of photosynthesis which occurs
mainly in the (1) cells. They have numerous (2) that allow exchange of gases between themselves and the air around them and a network of veins that make up the tissue (3) that brings water to the leaf and (4) that carries away (5) produced in photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane or (6) and possess both (7) and (8) that enable them to make their own proteins. Inside, there is a fluid-filled matrix called the (9) that carries out the (10) reaction and also contains structures like (11) grains and oil droplets. Within this matrix are disc-like structures called (12) stacked in groups called (13) where the (14) reaction of photosynthesis takes place.

Light is absorbed by individual chlorophylls in the light-harvesting complexes
Energy is transferred from one pigment to another via Resonance Energy Transfer
This transfer funnels the energy to a reaction centre
where electron transfer starts
