Chloroplasts Carter Gamble

Main Ideas:
- Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells, not animal
- Made up of stacks (granules) of thylakoids encased in a membrane
- Main purpose of a chloroplast is to convert sunlight into energy in the process of photosynthesis
- Green color comes from chlorophyll

Reflection:
In the topic of chloroplasts I already I knew most of the information concerning their function, since they are so important in plant cells. It is still amazing to me that something that simple could create its own energy just with the sunlight. In our lessons on chloroplasts I have learned about their anatomy and function. This is very important information mostly in biology but could be possible used in the field of solar energy to make advances.
