draw a diagram of chloroplast and label the following: chloroplast membrane, thylakoid, granum (grana), stroma, thylakoid membrane, thylakoid inner space, location of pigments.
Pigments are present in thylakoid membrane.
Chloroplast is a double membrane bound organelle exclusively found in plants. The two membranes are called as outer membrane and inner membrane and enclose intermembrane space. The matrix of chloroplast is called as stroma which is the site of Calvin cycle. Thylakoid is present in the matrix. It includes the thylakoid lumen which is bound by thylakoid membrane. Thylakoid membrane is the site of light reaction. Chloroplast is a semi autonomous organelle because it contains its own double-stranded circular molecule of DNA and 70S type ribosomes.
