Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll.
Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis takes place inside the chloroplasts that sit in the mesophyll of the leaves. The thylakoids sit inside the chloroplast and they contain chlorophyll which absorbs the different colours of the light spectrum to create energy (Source: Biology: LibreTexts).
Detailed explanation-3: -What is the role of leaves in photosynthesis? The broad surface area of leaves allows for enhanced absorption of sunlight. Moreover, numerous pores, called stomata, allow easy gaseous exchange. Therefore, leaves act as the primary location for photosynthesis.
