Chloroplast

• Chloroplasts are never found in animal cells, but most of the cells in the green parts of plants have them. They contain the green colouring or pigment called chlorophyll.
• Chloroplasts absorbs energy from sunlight, and this energy is then used for making food for the plants by photosynthesis.
• Chloroplasts often contain starch grains, which have been made by photosynthesis in plant cells.
• Chlorophyll helps plants absorb energy from the Sun during photosynthesis.
