A
by photosynthesis in the chloroplast
B
by respiration in the mitochondria
C
by mitosis in the nucleus
D
by absorption in the cell membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis transforms light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose, and cellular respiration releases the energy from glucose to build ATP, which does the work of life. Moreover, photosynthesis reactants CO2 and H2O are products of cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitochondria carry out a variety of important processes in plants. Their major role is the synthesis of ATP through the coupling of a membrane potential to the transfer of electrons from NADH to O2 via the electron transport chain.
