Chloroplasts are the structures used for photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and algae (plantlike protists). Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, which do the chemical processes of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is what gives leaves their green color.

The main photosynthetic area of a leaf is composed of?

The main photosynthetic area of a leaf is composed of cells called mesophyll cells, specifically the palisade and spongy mesophyll cells. These cells contain chloroplasts, which house chlorophyll and are responsible for capturing light energy to drive photosynthesis. The arrangement of these cells maximizes the leaf's surface area exposed to light for efficient photosynthesis.
