Q. Which part of chloroplast does photosynthesis occur?

thylakoid membranes

Q. What part of the leaf does photosynthesis occur?

mesophyll

Q. Where does photosynthesis occur in the leaf and where are they located?

Photosynthesis takes place inside the chloroplasts that sit in the mesophyll of the leaves. The thylakoids sit inside the chloroplast and they contain chlorophyll which absorbs the different colours of the light spectrum to create energy (Source: Biology: LibreTexts).

Q. How do plants without chlorophyll survive?

Without the green chlorophyll all plants would be white. It doesn’t make food for itself like other plants, but instead gets its nourishment through a mutually beneficial fungal and tree root (mycorrhizal) relationship. Ultimately it gets nourishment from the trees.

Q. Where are water stomata located?

Water stomata are found in plants inhabiting the humid region. A type of secretory tissue in leaves of angiosperms known as hydathodes secretes water through pores in the epidermis or margin of leaves.

Q. Where is the location of the stomata on the leaf?

epidermis

Q. When stomata open what occurs?

When stomata are open, water vapor and other gases, such as oxygen, are released into the atmosphere through them. A number of factors can affect the exchange of gases between a leaf and the atmosphere.

Q. What is the exact location of chlorophyll?

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.

Q. Is chlorophyll present throughout the leaf?

Chlorophylls. The chlorophylls, a and b, are the pigments of photosynthesis. They are produced in chloroplasts in the photosynthetic tissues of the leaf. Chlorophyll is normally broken down towards the end of the leaf life span, and much of the nitrogen is resorbed by the plant.

Q. Is chlorophyll present in all leaves?

Leaves of all trees contain chlorophyll, a green pigment that has the unusual capability to capture light energy and (with the help of other components in the leaf) to convert that energy into a chemical form, such as sugar.
