STROMA Plastocyanin LUMEN The above system can be found in the thylakoid membrane of dozens of chloroplasts found in just one of the billions of cells that compose one leaf. Capture of photons emitted by the Sun is shown with curly arrows, while the straight arrows show electron-transport and the dotted arrows,
