    Conversion of CO2 into the ATP occurs during the process of photosynthesis in different compartments of leaves. Small openings-stomata are found on the surface of leaves, and they let CO2 diffuse into the mesophyll layer. The mesophyl layer of the leaf is the middle layer and it is the primary site of photosynthesis. Cells inside the mesophyll contain chloroplasts, which are specialized for the reactions of photosynthesis. The chloroplasts are composed of disc-like structures called thylakoids and the membrane of each thylakoid contains green-colored pigments called chlorophylls that absorb light. The fluid-filled space around the thylakoid is the stroma, and the space inside is the thylakoid space. Different chemical reactions occur in the different parts of the chloroplast.
