Structural adaptations of Chloroplast

• Smooth outer membrane

  • Easy movement through the cytoplasm
• Enzymes in the stroma

  • Control of the reaction in photosynthesis
• Starch granule in stroma

  • Glucose is temporarily stored
• Chlorophyll in grana

  • Needed for photosynthesis to occur
• Thylakoids Stacked

  • Increase the surface area therefore increasing the rate of reaction
