Notes from NEET topper
Structure of Chloroplast:
- Chloroplasts are double-membraned organelles found in plant cells.
- They contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, which captures light energy for photosynthesis.
- Chloroplasts have thylakoid membranes arranged in stacks called grana, where light-dependent reactions occur.
- The stroma is the fluid-filled region where the Calvin cycle (dark reactions) takes place.
