Detailed explanation-1: -The membranes of thylakoid contain chlorophyll pigments and are found in packets called quantasomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -In thylakoid membranes, chlorophyll pigments are found in packets called quantasomes. Each quantasome contains 230 to 250 chlorophyll molecules.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are a group of pigments called carotenoids, which unlike chlorophyll, are different shades of yellow and orange. Carotenoids reside with the two types of chlorophylls in the thylakoid membrane. Carotenoids are important because they can absorb certain wavelengths of light that chlorophylls cannot.

Detailed explanation-4: -More complicated diagrams will be displayed to illustrate the structures of the three types of pigments that are present during the aging of leaves: chlorophylls, carotenoids, and anthocyanins.

Detailed explanation-5: -Each thylakoid membrane contains many chlorophyll molecules and other proteins. Chlorophyll molecules are arranged into clusters called photosystems. Plants capture light energy with chlorophyll pigments and transfer it to electrons, which are then passed down the chain of proteins in the thylakoid membrane.
