agrupados en granas
Explanation:
Tilacoides (del griego thylakos = pequeña bolsa): La estructura de membrana especializada en la cual tiene lugar la fotosíntesis. Membranas internas de los cloroplastos que conforman compartimentos, en las cuales tiene lugar las "reacciones lumínicas" de la fotosíntesis. Un conjunto de tilacoides forma la grana. El área entre las granas se denomina estroma.

apilado/amontonado en granos


Explanation:
Grana is the plural of granum, which means "grano", in Spanish.

Stacked means apilado, amontonado.

So, it's literally the suggested expression.
