  3. Functions 6 CO2+ 6 H2O → C6H12O6+ 6 O2 Carbon dioxide + Water + Light energy → Glucose + Oxygen Biology4kids.com

  4. Chloroplast Structures • Inner/Outer Membrane • Membrane Space • Grana • Thylakoid Discs • Interconnecting Channels • Stroma • Starch Grain

  5. Membranes • Outer- freely permeable to molecules • Inner- contains transporters that regulate passage in and out of chloroplasts hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu

  6. Stroma • Fluid surrounding Grana • Connects thylakoids from Grana

  7. Grana • Stacks of Thylakoid Discs • Contains from 2-100 thylakoid discs hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu

  8. Thylakoid Discs • Disc shaped structures • Contain photosynthetic pigments • Interconnected and stacked on one another • Carry out Photosynthesis cellbiology.med.unsw.edu.au

  9. Starch Grain • Produced by photosynthesis • Store Glucose in form of Starch http://www.ivy-rose.co.uk
