Detailed explanation-1: -In plants and algae, which developed much later, photosynthesis occurs in a specialized intracellular organelle-the chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ribosome is the only common organelle of animal, plant and bacterial cells. The purpose of the ribosome is to synthesize proteins by linking together amino acids according to the instruction specified by the messenger RNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -The organelles found only in plant cells include chloroplast, cell wall and a vacuole. The chloroplasts contain a green pigment chlorophyll that is responsible for the process of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -A vacuole (/ˈvækjuːoʊl/) is a membrane-bound organelle which is present in plant and fungal cells and some protist, animal, and bacterial cells.
