Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Organelle that contains chlorophyll (a pigment that captures the sun’s energy to produce sugar for the plant cell in a process called photosynthesis)
A
Chloroplast
B
Cell Membrane
C
Cell Wall
D
Nuclear Membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-2: -The organelles that contain a green pigment and are selectively found in plants are called chloroplasts. These organelles contain chlorophyll pigment, which allows them to capture solar energy to prepare food.

Detailed explanation-3: -Inside the plant cell are small organelles called chloroplasts, which store the energy of sunlight. Within the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast is a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll, which is responsible for giving the plant its green color.

Detailed explanation-4: -In plants and algae, which developed much later, photosynthesis occurs in a specialized intracellular organelle-the chloroplast. Chloroplasts perform photosynthesis during the daylight hours.
