in which part of a chloroplast does photosynthesis occur?
stroma
outermost membrane
innermost membrane
between the two outer membranes
ribosomes
Photosynthesis occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast. The stroma is the fluid - filled space inside the chloroplast where the light - independent reactions (Calvin cycle) of photosynthesis take place. The outermost membrane, innermost membrane, and the space between the two outer membranes do not have the enzymes and conditions necessary for the full process of photosynthesis. Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis and not in photosynthesis.
