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: -What makes a leaf green is chlorophyll, the green pigment located within the chloroplasts. More specifically, chlorophyll resides in the thylakoid membranes. The chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight, and it is this energy that drives the synthesis of food molecules in the chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells contain chloroplasts. The organelle which is responsible for this is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that gives leaves their colour and absorbs light energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Inside the space of the chloroplast called the stroma are stacks of membranes called grana. Each stack contains small spheres called thylakoids. The coating of the thylakoids is called the thylakoid membrane, which is where the chlorophyll is located.
