In what part of the plant cell does the process of photosynthesis take place?
A
nucleus
B
mitochondria
C
chloroplasts
D
vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.

Detailed explanation-2: -You should notice that the vast majority of chloroplasts are found in the cells of the mesophyll. Even more specifically, the palisade layer has the most chloroplasts, so the greatest amount of photosynthesis occurs in that leaf layer.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chloroplast is capable of capturing light energy from the sun with the help of chlorophyll pigments present in it. And then it converts this light energy into chemical energy for the production of food material.
