27 Απρ 2017 · Chloroplasts are the part of plant and algal cells that carry out photosynthesis, the process of converting light energy to energy stored in the form of sugar and other organic molecules that the plant or alga uses as food. Photosynthesis has two stages. In the first stage, the light-dependent reactions occur.
30 Οκτ 2024 · Chloroplast, structure within the cells of plants and green algae that is the site of photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are a type of plastid that are distinguished by their green color, the result of specialized chlorophyll pigments. In plants, chloroplasts occur in all green tissues.
29 Ιαν 2024 · Chloroplasts have a lens shape in plants, although they have different shapes in algae, like a cup, a net, or a spiral. A typical chloroplast size is 3-10 μm in diameter and 1–3 μm thick. Each chloroplast contains at least three membrane systems: the outer membrane, inner membrane, and thylakoid system.
Think of a chloroplast as a tiny solar-powered factory inside a plant cell. It’s made up of different parts including: 1. Outer membrane. This is like the factory’s outer wall, protecting everything inside. 2. Stroma. This is the factory’s production area where important reactions happen. 3. Thylakoids. These look like pancakes inside the ...
15 Ιουλ 2020 · The chloroplast is a type of cell organelle called plastids found in plants and blue-green algae. It contains the pigment chlorophyll that traps the light energy of the sun to convert them to the chemical energy of food by a process called photosynthesis .
Essentially, chloroplasts are plastids found in cells of higher plants and algae as sites of photosynthesis. This makes them the most important cell organelles as plants are the primary producers and the base of all food chains.
24 Ιουν 2019 · Chloroplasts in plants and algae produce food and absorb carbon dioxide through the photosynthesis process that creates carbohydrates, such as sugars and starch. The active components of the chloroplast are the thylakoids, which contain chlorophyll, and the stroma, where carbon fixation takes place.
