Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Organelle that produces glucose
A
Chloroplast
B
Mitochondria
C
Both
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitochondria are the working organelles that keep the cell full of energy. In a plant cell, chloroplast makes sugar during the process of photosynthesis converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Answer and Explanation: Glucose is produces in the chloroplast of a cell. The chloroplast is an organelle that is located in the plant cell and uses the process of photosynthesis to produce glucose. It does it by taking sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide and making glucose and oxygen out of the ingredients.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chloroplasts and mitochondria are the major ATP producing organelles in plant leaves.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glucose is produced in the stroma of the chloroplast of leaves. Plants produce glucose through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is mainly carried out by the mesophyll cells of the leaves. The mesophyll cells form the ground tissue in the leaf.
