Detailed explanation-1: -Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a chloroplast, sugars are produced in the stroma. The stroma is the space outside the thylakoid membranes. This is where the reactions of the Calvin cycle take place.
