B
Mitochondria
C
Nucleus
D
Ribosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Inside the plant cell are small organelles called chloroplasts, which store the energy of sunlight. Within the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast is a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll, which is responsible for giving the plant its green color.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chloroplasts are organelles found in the broccoli’s cells, along with those of other plants and algae. They capture light energy and store it as fuel molecules in the plant’s tissues.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants capture light energy through the chlorophyll pigments-present inside their green leaves. Chlorophylls are the green pigments that are located in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-4: -They capture the sun’s energy with the help of chlorophyll in the leaf cells. The chlorophyll traps and packages the energy from the light of the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Leaves usually have a large surface so they can collect the most sunlight.
