The green photosynthetic pigment common to all photosynthetic organisms.
chloroplasts
Biology; Cell biology
Disk-like organelles with a double membrane found in eukaryotic plant cells; contain thylakoids and are the site of photosynthesis. ATP is generated during photosynthesis by chemiosmosis.
chemotrophs
