A
mitochondria
B
chloroplast
C
Vacuole
D
Cytoplasm
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis: The Basics Photosynthesis takes place inside the chloroplasts that sit in the mesophyll of the leaves. The thylakoids sit inside the chloroplast and they contain chlorophyll which absorbs the different colours of the light spectrum to create energy (Source: Biology: LibreTexts).

Detailed explanation-3: -In plants, chloroplasts are concentrated particularly in the parenchyma cells of the leaf mesophyll (the internal cell layers of a leaf).

Detailed explanation-4: -So, the correct answer is ‘Grana’.

Detailed explanation-5: -Chloroplastida (green algae and plants) The chloroplastida chloroplasts, or green chloroplasts, are another large, highly diverse primary chloroplast lineage. Their host organisms are commonly known as green algae and land plants.
