Chloroplasts are responsible for ____
A
Photosynthesis
B
Respiration
C
Storing DNA
D
Mitosis
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: -Chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a pigment that gives plants their green color, and it helps plants create their own food through photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells require both chloroplasts and mitochondria since they carry out both cell respiration and photosynthesis. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are cell organelles of a plant cell. Chloroplast is the site of photosynthesis in plant cells. It converts light energy(sunlight) into chemical energy.
