Best Answer

A chloroplast is a type of structure, called an organelle, that is found in plants and is where photosynthesis occurs. Normally present in plant leaves, chloroplasts contain all of the components that allow the plant to convert sunlight into usable energy. The main components of chloroplasts are the membranes, chlorophyll and other pigments, grana and stroma.
