Answer:

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are organelles that conduct photosynthesis, where the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll captures the energy from sunlight, converts it, and stores it in the energy-storage molecules ATP and NADPH while freeing oxygen from water in plant and algal cells. They then use the ATP and NADPH to make organic molecules from carbon dioxide in a process known as the Calvin cycle. Chloroplasts carry out a number of other functions, including fatty acid synthesis, much amino acid synthesis, and the immune response in plants. The number of chloroplasts per cell varies from one, in unicellular algae, up to 100 in plants like Arabidopsis and wheat.

Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that use photosynthetic energy to transform light energy into chemical energy that is relatively stable. They help to keep life on Earth afloat by doing so. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that use photosynthetic energy to transform light energy into chemical energy that is relatively stable.

The functions of the chloroplast are as follows:

  • Photosynthesis is the most critical function of the chloroplast.
  • Light energy is absorbed and converted to chemical energy by this organism.
  • Chloroplast contains a component called chlorophyll, which traps sun energy and is employed in the food synthesis of all green plants.
  • By photolysis of water, it generates NADPH and molten oxygen (O2).
  • The photosynthetic process generates ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
  • During the Calvin Cycle, or nighttime reaction of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide (CO2) extracted from the air is utilised to create carbon and sugar.
