Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
Recall that photosynthesis occurs in specific organelles within plant cells that contain pigments to capture light energy.
Identify the organelle known for containing chlorophyll, the green pigment essential for absorbing light during photosynthesis.
Recognize that chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for carrying out photosynthesis in plant cells.
Differentiate chloroplasts from other organelles like ribosomes (protein synthesis), lysosomes (waste breakdown), and mitochondria (cellular respiration).
