The chloroplast structure within a plant cell is composed of the following parts:
- Inner and outer membranes
- Stroma
- Thylakoid membrane which contains the photosystems
- Granum which is a stack of thylakoids
- Stroma lamellae which are flattened sacs inside the chloroplast
The inner membrane contains enzymes and proteins that are involved in photosynthesis while the outer membrane acts as a barrier that prevents the movement of large molecules. The stroma is the space between the inner and outer membranes and is filled with a variety of enzymes and proteins that are involved in metabolic processes. The thylakoid membrane contains the photosystems which are responsible for absorbing sunlight and converting it into chemical energy. The granum is a stack of thylakoids and the stroma lamellae are flattened sacs inside the chloroplast that contain enzymes and proteins involved in the production of carbohydrates.

How can you identify which cell is the plant and which cell is an animal cell?
An animal cell has a cell wall around the cell membrane and is a rectangular shape, where as an animal cell does not have a cell wall and is a circular shape. Also a plant cell has chloroplast which carries out photosynthesis.
What cell has a cell wall but not a chloroplast?
fungi cell
Why chloroplast is said to be cell within a cell?
A Chloroplast is sometimes refered to as a "cell within a cell" due to the fact it has its own membrane is separated from the rest of the cell. This may also be due to having small organelles within the Chloroplast.
What does a plant cell have that a animal cell do not have?
Chloroplast and cell wall
Does the animal cell contain chloroplast?
No, it doesn't have a chloroplast. Only a plant cell does.
Which organelle enables you recognize or identify the cell as a plant or an animal cell?
There are two things. The organelle is the chloroplast, but there is also a cell wall.
Where is the cell is the chloroplast?
Chloroplast is in the cytoplasm of plant cell .

What makes food in plant cell?
Chloroplast
What does a plant cell have that a animal cell doesnt?
chloroplast and cell wall and a LARGE vacoule
Which of the following components is found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Your question is incomplete -- what are "these parts"
What plants have cells with cell walls and chloroplast in them?
All plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplast that is what makes them a plant cell!!
What cell has a cell wall but not a chloroplast?
fungi cell
Two plant cell parts not found in an animal cell?
actually its the cell wall and the chloroplast
Why chloroplast is said to be cell within a cell?
A Chloroplast is sometimes refered to as a "cell within a cell" due to the fact it has its own membrane is separated from the rest of the cell. This may also be due to having small organelles within the Chloroplast.
How are plant cells different from cheek cells?
A cheek cell do not have cell wall and chloroplast while a plant cell have cell wall and some have chloroplast.
Which cell organelles is called kitchen of the cell?
Chloroplast is known as the kitchen of cell not Mitochondria. Chloroplast have a pigment called chlorophyll and they are involved in the photosynthesis of food that's why known as kitchen of cell.
