Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The cell organelle where photosynthesis occurs in plant cells is the
A
chloroplast
B
mitochondrion
C
vacuole
D
nucleus
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 organelles found only in plant cells include-chloroplast, cell wall, plastids, and a large central vacuole. The chloroplasts contain a green pigment chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The chloroplast in leaves is the site of photosynthesis.
