What is the purpose of the electron transport chain in the thylakoid membrane?

Biology
1 answer:
Feliz [49]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

To produce energy in form of ATP

Explanation:

The thylakoid membrane harbors photosystems that will receive light photons, ejecting electrons from a main chlorophyl molecule in a reaction center, to other acceptors.  These electrons will reach the electron transport chain to create a proton gradient, and subsequently, to produce ATP.  Later on these electrons will reach the other photosystem, to produce reducing power.  This is in plants.

Cyclic photosystems also exist, in some bacteria, for example,  and only produce energy as ATP.  They also have an electron transport chain.

Lesions to the medial geniculate of the ___________ block conventional auditory fear conditioning.
marissa [1.9K]

Lesions to the medial geniculate of the amygdala block conventional auditory fear conditioning.

Medial geniculate

The medial geniculate body (MGB) is a collection of nuclei that receives heavy input from the IC and acts as a key synaptic junction on the routes that carry data to the cerebral cortex's auditory regions.

One should also think about how the medial geniculate's structure might affect its possible roles as a relay nucleus given the substantial studies on its anatomy. It is not in question that the MGv, which is the lemniscal portion of the MGB, "relays" accurate auditory information to the primary auditory cortex.
