Chloroplast Functions - A2 Bio

?
Contains genes for some of their proteins
dna loop
1 of 9
Fluid that surounds the thylakoid membrane. Contains enzymes needed to carry out light-independent stage of photosynthesis
Stroma
2 of 9
Stack of thylakoids joined to one another. Resembles a stack of coins.
Granum
3 of 9
Stores product of photosynthesis (glucose)
Starch grain
4 of 9
Interconnected flattened fluid-filled sacs. Proteins including photosynthetic pigments and electron carriers are embedded in the membranes, and are involved in the light dependant reaction.
thylakoid membrane
5 of 9
hollow tube like channel that is paired with a stack of thylakoids. Transports nutrients needed for thylakoids to keep organelles functioning.
stroma lamelle
6 of 9
for the synthesis of proteins in a chloroplast
ribosomes
7 of 9
Is smooth and contains transporter molecules. Proteins regulate substances moving in and out of chloroplast.
inner membrane
8 of 9
Smooth and freely permeable to molecules such as carbon dioxide and water
Outer membrane
