- Which of the following statements incorrectly describes the structure of a chloroplast? A chloroplast has both an outer membrane and an inner membrane, often separated by a narrow intermembrane space. The inner membrane of the chloroplast encloses the stoma, a dense fluid filled with enzymes needed for photosynthesis. A chloroplast contains thylakoids, which are flat, saclike structures suspended in the stroma. Thylakoids of a chloroplast are arranged into stacks called grana.arrow_forwardThere are three major resources (and several others in smaller quantities) that are required by the photosynthetic process.
