Mia Carlson - Chloroplasts


https://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/plant-cells-chloroplasts-and-cell-walls-14053956
Main Ideas:

  • Chloroplasts are only found in plant cells
  • They are found on the leaves of a plant
  • They carry out photosynthesis
  • They have a green pigment inside of them called chlorophyll
  • Contain thylakoids, which are discs inside of it

Reflection:


• I learned that chloroplasts carry out photosynthesis, and what is inside of them.

    A thylakoid helps with photosynthesis and also contains a green pigment, helping with color within the plant. - Mia Carlson
