12
Let’s know more about photosynthesis
14
The structure of the chloroplast and photosynthetic membranes: The thylakoid is the structural unit of photosynthesis.thylakoid Thylakoids are stacked like pancakes in stacks known collectively as grana. grana The areas between grana are referred to as stroma.stroma
