Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where is chlorophyll found in the chloroplast?
A
in the stroma
B
within photosystems
C
in the ATP synthase
D
in the electron carrier molecule
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The green pigment chlorophyll is located within the thylakoid membrane, and the space between the thylakoid and the chloroplast membranes is called the stroma (Figure 3, Figure 4).

Detailed explanation-2: -The thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast contains chlorophyll. Almost every photosynthetic creature, including algae, cyanobacteria, and green plants, has chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of photosystems: photosystem I (PSI) and photosystem II (PSII). Both photosystems contain many pigments that help collect light energy, as well as a special pair of chlorophyll molecules found at the core (reaction center) of the photosystem.
