Question

Yasmine is asked to describe the structural organization of chloroplasts. She writes the following sentence:"A chloroplast contains thylakoid stacks, called stroma, that are surrounded by fluid-filled grana."Which change to the sentence is necessary to make the sentence accurate?

Answer 1

Answer:

The change that needs to be made is ' "A chloroplast contains thylakoid stacks, called grana that are surrounded by fluid-filled stroma.

Explanation:

Chloroplast can be described as structures present in leaves of a plant which carry out the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their own food.

A granum can be described as a stack of thylakoid discs. A chloroplast can comprise 10 to 100 stacks of grana. The thylakoid membrane is the site where light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occurs.

Stroma can be described as the homogeneous matrix present between the membrane of chloroplast.
