Which part of a plant do chloroplast reside in?

PS1 (Photosystem 1) is located on the stroma thylakoids: the thylakoids floating around in the stroma. PS2 is located on the grana thylakoids, those thylakoids organized into stacks called grana!

Given that prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles why do cyanobacteria which are prokaryotes possess membrane-bound thylakoids?

Cyanobacteria were formerly known as blue-green algae which are photosynthetic. Thylakoids in the cyanobacteria are not separate organelles as we see in eukaryotic cell (eg:chloroplast). In fact the chloroplasts of eukaryotic cells were originated in a endosymbiotic event where cyanobacteria was taken up by the cell. Please read about enodsymbiosis.


Is chloroplast made up of thylakoids?

A chloroplast is composed of: -An outer membrane (phospholipid bilayer). -Stroma, which is a sort of cytosol. -Thylakoids, which are the site of photosynthesis. The thylakoids make up a very important part of a chloroplast, but they aren't the only thing in there.

How can you tell if a producer has chlorophyll?

The cell will have green organelles called chloroplasts. Inside the chloroplasts are thylakoids, which are stacks of discs called grana (singular granum). Chlorophyl is contained in the grana.
