Meaning

Chloroplasts are a part of some cells that uses photosynthesis to make food for the cell.

About Chloroplasts

Chloroplasts are found in many plant cells and in Euglena.
Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called Chlorophyll which allows it to perform photosynthesis.
The Chloroplast is where photosynthesis takes place in a plant.
Some specialised plant cells do not have chloroplasts, such as Root Hair Cells which are underground so they don't get any light.
