Chloroplasts -are structures that houses the pigments and are responsible for Photosynthesis.

Lamella- is an extension of a thylakoid within a chloroplast, linking a thylakoid within one granum to one in another.

Thylakoid- is a disk-shaped structure wherein light is captured.

Granum- a stack of thylakoids

Lumen- is the inside of a thylakoid membrane

Stroma- is the aqueous fluid inside a chloroplast

Innermembrane Space- also known as IMS is the region between the inner membrane and the outer membrane of a chloroplast

  • Outer Memmbrane- is freely permeable to molecules.
  • Inner Membrane- contains many transporters

The main parts of a chloroplast are the outer and inner membranes, stroma, thylakoid membrane, and grana. The stroma is where the Calvin cycle takes place, which is responsible for synthesizing sugars from carbon dioxide. The thylakoid membrane contains chlorophyll and is where light reactions occur, producing energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.

Thylakoid (the individual discs inside the chloroplast) I think serve as the powerhouse of the chloroplast, which is the part that does photosynthesis.

Stroma (because it acts like the cytoplasm in an overall cell) acts to hold all the parts together.

Choloroplasts use clorophyll (what makes leaves green) to make food. Outer membrane, intermembrane space, inner membrane, Stroma (aqueous fluid), Granum (stack of thylakoids), Thylakoid, Lamella, Lumen (inside of Thylakoid)

The parts of a chloroplast are the thyakoid, the Grana or Granium (Singular), The inner and outer membrane, the stroma, and air pockets (if you wish to count them too.)
