English - English
An organelle found in the cells of green plants, and in photosynthetic algae, where photosynthesis takes place
a chlorophyll containing plastid
the organelle in the cytoplasm of plant cells where chlorophyll is stored
A cell with a complex internal structure of stacked, photosynthetic pigment-bearing, membranous discs set in a matrix The chloroplasts of various algae also possess areas of starch formation (see pyrenoid)
In animals chloroplasts occur only in certain low forms
Under light of varying intensity they exhibit phototactic movements
{i} plastid which contains chlorophyll (Botany)
The substance that makes a plant cell green Also involved in converting sunlight to energy
There are many "organelles" that contribute to the function of a single cell In plants cells, the organelle that carries out photosynthesis is called the chloroplast
The inclusions (plastids) within plant cells which contain chlorophyll
Organelle in a cell that contains chlorophyll and produces organic energy through photosynthesis
plastid containing chlorophyll and other pigments; in plants that carry out photosynthesis
Chloroplasts are organelles found only in plants They contain chlorophyll and host photosynthesis
small plant cell component that contains chlorophyll
Microscopic, ellipsoidal organelle in a green plant cell. It is the site of photosynthesis. It is distinguished by its green colour, caused by the presence of chlorophyll. It contains disk-shaped structures called thylakoids that make possible the formation of ATP, an energy-rich storage compound
The cellular organelle found only in green plants that is the site of photosynthesis in the cells containing it
Cellular part of plants responsible for photosynthesis and containing photosynthetic pigments and enzymes
A type of plastid containing chlorophyll
A cell-like organelle present in algae and plants that contains chlorophyll (and usually other pigments) and carries out PHOTOSYNTHESIS (Greek, chloro, green + plastos, molded)
a disk-like organelle with a double membrane, found in some protists and all green plant cells, that contains chlorophyll and is the site of photosynthesis
Photosynthetic organelle of higher plants It is surrounded by a double membrane The photosynthetic pigment, chlorophyll is associated with the grana, arranged like a stack
the organelle in a plant cell that contains chlorophyll and is the site of photosynthesis
The organelle in plants and some protists that absorbs sunlight and uses the enery to synthesis organic compunds from CO2 and H2O
Chloroplasts are minute flattened granules, usually occurring in great numbers in the cytoplasm near the cell wall, and consist of a colorless ground substance saturated with chlorophyll pigments
Cellular organelle containing membranes (thylakoids) in which photosynthesis takes place Chloroplasts also have a DNA chromosome, which is generally maternally inherited through the egg cytoplasm
A plastid containing chlorophyll, developed only in cells exposed to the light
Chlorophyll-containing organelle of photosynthetic eukaryotes
