Solution:

Lumen of chloroplast serves as reservoir of protons (H⁺) and site for photolysis of water.

Chloroplasts are self-duplicating cell organelles.Chloroplast are formed from binary fission of pre-existing plastids.

The ribosomes of the chloroplasts are smaller (70S) than the cytoplasmic ribosomes (80S).
