What are the little green bodies in the plant that soak up sunlight?
A
cholorophyll
B
cholorplasts
C
coloredgreens
D
photosynthesis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chlorophyll is located in a plant’s chloroplasts, which are tiny structures in a plant’s cells. This is where photosynthesis takes place.

Detailed explanation-2: -Within the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast is a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll, which is responsible for giving the plant its green color. During photosynthesis, chlorophyll absorbs energy from blue-and red-light waves, and reflects green-light waves, making the plant appear green.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant cells contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that gives leaves their colour and absorbs light energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Chloroplasts are organelles which are only found in plant cells. Their job is to absorb sunlight and use it (along with water and carbon dioxide) to produce a simple sugar called glucose.
