Answer 1

If the chloroplasts in a plant's cells became damaged, the correct response would be: The plant would not make glucose and oxygen.

Chloroplasts are essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen. Without functioning chloroplasts, the plant would be unable to produce these critical substances.
