Where is the granum found?

A grana is the plural of granum. A granum is a stack of thylakoids found in chloroplasts--they look like stacks of pancakes (thylakoids). Grana is multiple stacks of thylakoids found in chloroplasts in the cell. The light reaction of photosynthesis takes place in the thylakoids stacked in grana.


The flat discs found in chloroplasts are called?

The flat discs found in chloroplasts are called thylakoids. Thylakoids are membrane-bound compartments that contain chlorophyll and other pigments, where photosynthesis takes place. Multiple thylakoids stack on top of one another to form grana.


In which plant cell organelle does photosynthesis take place?

It takes place in the chloroplasts, in the stacks of discs called thykaloids.


Flattened sacs in the chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll?

These are thylakoids, which are the structures within the chloroplast where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur. Thylakoids are interconnected and form stacks called grana. Within the thylakoid membranes, chlorophyll molecules capture light energy to drive the photosynthetic process.


What is the name of the cell organelle that is shaped like a flattened disc contains stoma and stacks of thylakoids and is the site of photosynthesis?

The cell organelle you are referring to is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts are shaped like flattened discs and contain an internal fluid called stroma, as well as stacks of thylakoids where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur. They play a crucial role in converting light energy into chemical energy in plants and some algae.

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.

What do Chloroplast contain dislike membranous sacs arranged in stacks are called what?

First off, the wording of the question was confusing and it took me a while to figure it out. haa. But.. The disk-like membranous sacs arranged in stacks are called Grana, plural form of Granum. The grana are arranged in columns and contain individual "pancake resemblance" discs called Thylakoids.

What dose the chloroplast do for the cell?

The chloroplast is the site of photosynthesis. The chloroplast is composed of the lumen and the stroma. The inside of the chloroplast looks like stacks of discs with gel in between them.


What are the green structures inside plant cells called?

The green structures inside plant cells are called chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. They contain chlorophyll, the pigment that gives plants their green color.

Grana thylakoids and stromal are all components found in?

Grana, thylakoids, and stromal are all components found in chloroplasts. Grana are stacks of thylakoid discs that contain chlorophyll and other pigments for capturing light energy during photosynthesis. Thylakoids are flattened membrane sacs within the grana where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place. Stromal refers to the non-membrane part of the chloroplast, which contains enzymes and other molecules involved in the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
