Detailed explanation-1: -Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplast is a plastid containing green pigment called chlorophyll. This pigment helps the cells to prepare its own food by the process of photosynthesis, So thats why Chloroplast is the cell organelle which is known as Kitchen of the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chlorophyll is a pigment that gives plants their green color, and it helps plants create their own food through photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -This process occurs in almost all plant species and is carried out in specialized organelles known as chloroplasts. All of the green structures in plants, including stems and unripened fruit, contain chloroplasts, but the majority of photosynthesis activity in most plants occurs in the leaves.

Detailed explanation-5: -Chloroplasts arose through the symbiotic integration of two organisms, a eukaryotic host and a free-living photosynthetic prokaryote, in a process termed endosymbiosis (reviewed by Howe et al., 2008a). This process has generated an extraordinary diversity of extant photosynthetic eukaryotic lineages (Fig. 1).
