Photosynthetic pigments found in the chloroplasts occurs in

A. Thylakoid membranes

B. Plastoglobules

C. Matrix

D. Chloroplast envelope

Answer: Option A

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Photosynthetic pigments found in the chloroplasts occur in Thylakoid membranes.
Thylakoids are membrane-bound compartments inside chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. They are the site of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. Thylakoids consist of a thylakoid membrane surrounding a thylakoid lumen.
The thylakoid membrane is the site of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis with the photosynthetic pigments embedded directly in the membrane. It is an alternating pattern of dark and light bands measuring each 1 nanometre.
