GROWTH AND DIVISION OF CHLOROPLASTS OR PROPLASTID MCQ’s
REPLICATION AND PROTEIN SYNTHESIS- Replication of Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) replicates independently of nuclear DNA and does not follow the cell cycle. The replication mechanism of cpDNA varies among different plant species and is still not fully understood. However, two main models have been proposed: 1. Modes of Chloroplast DNA Replication Semi-Conservative Replication … Read more

Isolation of Chloroplast Components Chloroplast isolation is a crucial technique in plant biology that allows scientists to study photosynthesis, energy conversion, and organelle function. By isolating chloroplasts and their individual components, researchers can analyze their biochemical properties, membrane structures, and enzymatic activities. This process involves breaking plant cells, separating chloroplasts, and further fractionating them into … Read more
Chloroplast structure Introduction Chloroplast structure -Chloroplasts are the most common and essential plastids in green plants as they are the site of photosynthesis. They possess the ability to convert radiant energy into energy stored in food material, which is directly and indirectly utilized by living organisms. Chloroplasts were first observed by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in … Read more
