Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chloroplasts are not part of the endomembrane system. They are considered part of the plastids family and have their own DNA and ribosomes, functioning somewhat independently within plant and algal cells for photosynthesis. The endomembrane system includes the nuclear envelope, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, and vesicles, but not chloroplasts.
