Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the function of each organelle listed in the options: Chloroplasts, Mitochondria, Ribosomes, and Golgi apparatus.
Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells, converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell, where cellular respiration occurs to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis, translating mRNA into polypeptide chains.
The Golgi apparatus is involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
