What does the Choroplas do?

Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and some algae, responsible for photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that captures sunlight, which is then used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process not only provides energy for the plant but also produces oxygen, contributing to the Earth's atmosphere. Additionally, chloroplasts play a role in synthesizing fatty acids and amino acids, essential for plant growth and development.
