Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis.

The primary function of chloroplast is to conduct photosynthesis, which is the process plants use to convert light energy into chemical energy that can be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
