Recall the Jagendorf experiment (pasted below) was conducted wholly in the dark. Hypothesize what would happen if you were to mimic the experiment, but rather than alter pH, you place your thylakoids in a beaker with a solution that mimics the chloroplast stroma in direct sunlight. What would be the result?

ATP production.

Explanation:

The result will be the production of ATP molecules if we place thylakoids in a beaker with a solution that mimics the chloroplast stroma in direct sunlight. The thylakoids are able to formed ATP in the dark because H+ gradient is required for ATP synthesis. The scientists find out that the light reactions were not necessary to establish the H+ gradient required for ATP synthesis by ATP synthase.

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
