Detailed explanation-1: -In most higher plants, the thylakoids are arranged in tight stacks called grana (singular granum). Grana are connected by stromal lamellae, extensions that run from one granum, through the stroma, into a neighbouring granum.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each granum is made up of a stack of closed compartment called thylakoids.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thylakoid is a disc-shaped structure within the stroma of the chloroplast. Stroma is the space inside the inner membrane of the chloroplast. Thylakoids are placed one above the other to form a stack-like structure called a granum.
Detailed explanation-4: -The main difference between grana and thylakoid is that grana are the stacks of thylakoids whereas thylakoid is a membranebound compartment which is found in chloroplast.
