Proteins in the thylakoid membrane organize chlorophyll and other pigments into clusters called photosystems, which are the light-collecting units of the chloroplast.

The reactions of photosystems include: the lightdependent reactions and the light-independent reactions, or Calvin cycle. The light-dependent reactions take place within the thylakoid membranes. The Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma, which is the region outside the thylakoid membranes.

8-3 The Reactions of Photosynthesis Electron Carriers
Electron Carriers
When electrons in chlorophyll absorb sunlight, the electrons gain a great deal of energy. Cells use electron carriers to transport these highenergy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules.

8-3 The Reactions of Photosynthesis Electron Carriers
One carrier molecule is NADP+. Electron carriers, such as NADP+, transport electrons. NADP+ accepts and holds 2 high-energy electrons along with a hydrogen ion (H+). This converts the NADP+ into NADPH.

8-3 The Reactions of Photosynthesis Electron Carriers
The conversion of NADP+ into NADPH is one way some of the energy of sunlight can be trapped in chemical form. The NADPH carries high-energy electrons to chemical reactions elsewhere in the cell. These high-energy electrons are used to help build a variety of molecules the cell needs, including carbohydrates like glucose.

Light-Dependent Reactions
The light-dependent reactions require light. The light-dependent reactions produce oxygen gas and convert ADP and NADP+ into the energy carriers ATP and NADPH.
