Key Points

  • Cell wall:-
    • It is a rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support and protection to the cell.

Additional Information

  • Chloroplasts:-
    • These are present in plant cells, which are responsible for the process of photosynthesis.
    • They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs sunlight and converts it into energy.
  • Plastids:-
    • These are a group of organelles found in plant cells that have diverse functions such as storage, pigmentation, and photosynthesis.
    • Chloroplasts are a type of plastid that contains chlorophyll.
