Draw a diagram of internal structure of chloroplast along with the explanation of chloroplast. |
| Answer» The\xa0chloroplast\xa0has an inner and outer membrane with an empty intermediate space in between. Inside the\xa0chloroplast\xa0are stacks of thylakoids, called grana, as well as stroma, the dense fluid inside of the\xa0chloroplast. These thylakoids contain the chlorophyll that is necessary for the plant to go through photosynthesis.\xa0The\xa0structure\xa0of the\xa0chloroplast\xa0is adapted to the\xa0function\xa0it performs: Thylakoids – flattened discs have a small internal volume to maximise hydrogen gradient upon proton accumulation. ... Photosystems – pigments organised into photosystems in thylakoid membrane to maximise light absorption. | |
