Photosynthesis takes place in the......

Mitochondria
Chloroplast
Chlorophyll

Answer 1

Photosynthesis takes place in the **Chloroplast**. Chloroplasts are the organelles found in the cells of green plants and some other organisms that are responsible for capturing light energy and converting it into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is the pigment within the chloroplasts that absorbs light, but the process itself occurs in the chloroplasts. Mitochondria, on the other hand, are involved in cellular respiration, not photosynthesis.
