Detailed explanation-1: -In a plant cell, chloroplast makes sugar during the process of photosynthesis converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. In mitochondria, through the process of cellular respiration breaks down sugar into energy that plant cells can use to live and grow.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts are the central organelles performing photosynthesis and producing sugars.

Detailed explanation-3: -In a chloroplast, sugars are produced in the stroma. The stroma is the space outside the thylakoid membranes. This is where the reactions of the Calvin cycle take place.

Detailed explanation-4: -Inside the chloroplasts within leaves, light, water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2) are transformed into energy and sugar (glucose). Using water, sunlight is converted into energy-storing molecules within the plant cells. The energy from these molecules is then used to create glucose from CO2.

Detailed explanation-5: -The chloroplast is a plastid that is made up of an outer membrane, an inner membrane, grana, and the stroma. It’s within the chloroplast that photosynthesis takes place in plants, turning sunlight and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen.
