The stacks of sacs are connected by stromal lamellae. The lamellae act like the skeleton of the chloroplast, keeping all of the sacs a safe distance from each other and maximizing the efficiency of the organelle.
The abdomen has silk glands used to spin a web to trap prey. Invaginations of the body wall form lamellae (pages) of the book lungs; air flows across the lamellae in the opposite direction from blood flow to exchange gases more efficiently.
Within the inner membrane, in the region called the stroma, there is a system of interconecting flattened membrane compartments, called the lamellae, or thylakoid membrane.

Light energy, CO2, and H2O are converted to produce carbohydrates and O2
Inner membrane has folds, called lamellae (where chlorophyll is found), which surround a fluid, called stroma

Chloroplasts can have from 10 to 100 grana. Grana are connected by stroma thylakoids, also called intergrana thylakoids or lamellae. Grana thylakoids and stroma thylakoids can be distinguished by their different protein composition.
Haversian system [Clopton Havers, British physician and anatomist, 1650-1702] The basic structural arrangement of compact bone consisting of: a Haversian canal which contains nerves and blood supply, lamellae which are concentric rings of matrix ...
In higher plants, lamellae, internal membranes with stacks (each termed a granum) of closed hollow disks called thylakoids, are also usually dispersed throughout the stroma.
