chloroplasts, plural;
  1. (in green plant cells) A plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place

  1. plastid containing chlorophyll and other pigments; in plants that carry out photosynthesis
  2. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and other eukaryotic organisms that conduct photosynthesis. Chloroplasts capture light energy to conserve free energy in the form of ATP and reduce NADP to NADPH through a complex set of processes called photosynthesis.
  3. (Chloroplasts) Special cells within plant leaves that take in light and transform it into energy.
  4. (Chloroplasts) are present in plants and some protists, converting solar energy to chemical energy in sugars (4.14).
  5. (Chloroplasts) convert light/food into usable energy. (ATP production)
  6. (III. Chloroplasts) specialized organelles that carry out the process of photosynthesis
  7. (chloroplasts) Plant cells that use energy from sunlight to create food.
  8. A chlorophyll-containing organelle (plastid) that gives the green colour to leaves and stems. Plastids harvest light energy that is used to fix carbon dioxide in the process called photosynthesis.
  9. A cell with a complex internal structure of stacked, photosynthetic pigment-bearing, membranous discs set in a matrix. The chloroplasts of various algae also possess areas of starch formation (see pyrenoid).
  10. cell organelles descended from cyanobacteria, active in photosynthesis
  11. the organelle in the cytoplasm of plant cells where chlorophyll is stored.
  12. a disk-shaped structure in plant and algal cells that contains chlorophyll and is the site of photosynthesis.
  13. An organelle in the cells of the green parts of plants, containing chlorophyll. It is responsible for fixing CO2 from the air and producing oxygen, by photosynthesis. ...
  14. A photosynthetic organelle found in many plants, algae, and other microbial eukaryotes. All chloroplasts are evolutionarily derived from cyanobacteria.
  15. (Gr. chloros, green + plastos, formed)  Specialized cytoplasmic organelle that contains chlorophyll. Lens-shaped and bounded by a double membrane, chloroplasts contain membranous structures (thylakoids) piled up into stacks, surrounded by a gel-like matrix (stroma). ...
  16. The intracellular organelle that carries out photosynthesis.
  17. a small, usually round cellular structure that contains chlorophyll; many are found in cells of most mosses and liverworts, while hornworts contain only one to 8.
  18. a double membrane-bound semiantonomous organelle in the cytoplast of eukaryotes and containing elaborated membranous sacs embedded in a protein-rich stroma and containing a variety of photosynthetic pigments
  19. The component organelles inside each plant cell that capture the energy of sunlight to catalyze a reaction that produces glucose from carbon dioxide gas and water - photosynthesis.
  20. Green cells in leaves and other parts of a plant which contain the chlorophyll.
  21. The organelle in plants and some protists that absorbs sunlight and uses the enery to synthesis organic compunds from CO2 and H2O.
  22. plant structure where photosynthesis occurs.
  23. Chloroplast - Part of a cell that contains that contains chlorophyll, and which provides color to plants.
