Process autotrophs use to convert energy of sunlight to produce high-energy carbohydrates. Photosynthesis
Light absorbing molecules. Pigment

Saclike photosynthetic membranes. Thylakoid
Fluid portion of the chloroplast, outside of the thylakoids. Stroma
An electron carrier, which is known as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. NADP
