In autotrophic bacteria,where is chlorophyll located?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autotrophic bacteria do not have chloroplasts, so chlorophyll cannot be located in chloroplast membranes or thylakoids. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis and do not contain chlorophyll. The nucleoid is where the bacterial chromosome is located and does not contain chlorophyll. Therefore, the best option is that chlorophyll is located in the plasma membrane, as this is where photosynthetic pigments are known to be located in prokaryotic cells.
