Chloroplasts are cell organelles that capture light energy and produce food to store for a later time. Chloroplasts are only in plant cells. They turn light energy into chemical energy. Inside chloroplasts are chlorophyll, stroma, thylakoid and grana. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that traps the light energy. It gives leaves and stems their green color.
This is what a chloroplast looks like.
And, this is the color the chlorophyll makes plants.
