collect sunlight which it converts to sugars
A
chloroplasts
B
cytoplasm
C
cell wall
D
mitochondria
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells. It is like a solar panel that changes sunlight energy into electric energy. The entire process is called photosynthesis and it all depends on the little green chlorophyll molecules in each chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the chloroplast, chlorophyll is the pigment that absorbs the sunlight. Chlorophyll is typically packed into stacks of membranes (called grana); it is in the grana where some of the sunlight is absorbed.

Detailed explanation-4: -In most plants, the leaves are the main food factories. They capture the sun’s energy with the help of chlorophyll in the leaf cells. The chlorophyll traps and packages the energy from the light of the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Leaves usually have a large surface so they can collect the most sunlight.

Detailed explanation-5: -Chlorophyll, the primary pigment used in photosynthesis, reflects green light and absorbs red and blue light most strongly. In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll.
