CHLOROPLAST
This guy which is only found in plant contains Chlorophyll. Cholorphyll is the green pigment in the cholorplast which captures the solar energy required for photosynthesis. The cholorplast also contains and inner and outer membrane as well as stoma, lamella, and granum.
The process of photosynthesis looks like this : 6CO2+6H2O+light ----> C6H12O6+6O2
and like this:
In photosynthesis, solar energy is changed to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the form of glucose and is then later converted in to ATP
