Solution

The correct option is C Chloroplasts
Stroma and grana are parts of chloroplast. Stroma is a matrix present in the chloroplast. It is bounded by a double membranous sheath. It contains a variety of photosynthetic enzymes, starch grains, DNA and ribosomes.
Grana are stacks of membrane-bounded, flattened discoid sacs called as thylakoid. It contains chlorophyll molecules. They are the main functional units of chloroplasts.
