Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is located in:

  1. A
    Grana
  2. B
    Pyrenoid
  3. C
    Stroma
  4. D
    Both (1) and (3)

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is located in both the grana and the stroma. The grana are stacks of thylakoid membranes that contain chlorophyll and other pigments, while the stroma is the fluid-filled region of the chloroplast that surrounds the grana. So, the correct answer is option D. Notice that the other options are not correct. Pyrenoids are small, dense structures that are found in some chloroplasts, but they are not the primary location of chlorophyll.
