The chloroplasts in plant cells are generally larger, have a defined shape, and contain stacked thylakoid membranes called grana. In contrast, chloroplasts in algae cells can vary in shape and size, may not always have well-defined grana, and can be more scattered throughout the cell. Overall, both plant and algae chloroplasts function in photosynthesis but may differ in their physical appearance.
