In plant and algae cells, photosynthesis takes place in?
A
Chloroplasts
B
The Nucleus
C
Ribosomes
D
Chlorophyll
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In plants and algae, which developed much later, photosynthesis occurs in a specialized intracellular organelle-the chloroplast. Chloroplasts perform photosynthesis during the daylight hours. The immediate products of photosynthesis, NADPH and ATP, are used by the photosynthetic cells to produce many organic molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -The chloroplast is an organelle specific for eukaryotic oxygenic photosynthetic organisms, namely algae and land plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -This process is called photosynthesis and is performed by all plants, algae, and even some microorganisms. To perform photosynthesis, plants need three things: carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.

Detailed explanation-4: -Most life on Earth depends on photosynthesis. The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar).
