In eukaryotic plant cells, in which organelle does photosynthesis primarily occur?
A
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
B
Chloroplast
C
Golgi apparatus
D
Mitochondrion
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the organelles listed in the problem and recall their primary functions in eukaryotic plant cells.
Recall that the rough endoplasmic reticulum is mainly involved in protein synthesis and processing, not photosynthesis.
Understand that the Golgi apparatus functions in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids, but does not perform photosynthesis.
Recognize that mitochondria are the sites of cellular respiration, producing ATP by breaking down glucose, but they do not carry out photosynthesis.
Recall that chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and are the organelles where photosynthesis occurs, converting light energy into chemical energy.
