Concept 6: Chloroplast Structure

Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynthesis. These double-membrane bound organelles enclose additional membranes called thylakoids. The disc-shaped thylakoids possess an interior space. The thylakoids are stacked to form grana, which are suspended in the stroma of the chloroplasts. Demonstrate your knowledge of chloroplast structure by placing the labels in their correct locations.
