Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In terms of organisms, photosynthesis occurs in autotrophes that contain the green pigment chlorophyll. This would include the entire plant kingdom, “half” of the Protista (the algae), & “half” the Moneran Kingdom (the blue-green algae). On the multicellular level, photosynthesis occurs in the leaves of plants.
Detailed explanation-2: -Only cells with chloroplasts-plant cells and algal (protist) cells-can perform photosynthesis. Animal cells and fungal cells do not have chloroplasts and, therefore, cannot photosynthesize.
