In a plant cell, where does photosynthesis primarily take place?
A
Golgi apparatus
B
Chloroplasts
C
Ribosomes
D
Mitochondria
Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the organelles listed in the problem: Golgi apparatus, Chloroplasts, Ribosomes, and Mitochondria.
Recall the primary function of each organelle: Golgi apparatus is involved in modifying and packaging proteins; Ribosomes synthesize proteins; Mitochondria generate ATP through cellular respiration.
Understand that photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
Recognize that chloroplasts contain the pigment chlorophyll and are the site where photosynthesis occurs in plant cells.
Conclude that among the options, photosynthesis primarily takes place in the chloroplasts.
