    photosynthesis captures light energy. These first steps are called the light reactions. Plant cells involved in photosynthesis are packed with organelles called chloroplasts. Within these chloroplasts are flattened membrane sacks stacked up like coins—the thylakoids. Groups of proteins and pigment molecules are embedded within the thylakoid membranes. The structure and arrangement of these molecules creates a system of interacting components that work together to capture the energy from light and convert
