Question

The cell organelle where photosynthesis occurs is
A) Chlorophyll
B) Mesophyll
C) Chloroplast
D) Thylakoid

Answer 1

Hint: Photosynthesis is a process carried out by plants to prepare their own food in which day carbon dioxide exhales and releases oxygen that we breathe in. Cell organelle in any cell is that special entity which is responsible for a particular function within the cell.

Complete answer: Let us take option A, all of us are aware of the process of photosynthesis but in regards to the above question we need to think about the organelle which is involved in the photosynthesis if we answer chlorophyll as an organelle that's surely wrong because when we are aware about photosynthesis at the same time we know that chlorophyll is a photosynthetic pigment and not a photosynthetic organelle. Chlorophyll here is that pigment which is present inside the photosynthetic organelle.
When the question is regarding photosynthesis it is very clear that it takes place in the leaves of the plants, and looking towards option B that is mesophyll cells, the cells are present in the leaves of the plants and android plays a great role in photosynthesis. These cells are actually a part of the ground tissue of the leaf. They are large spaces which allow the free movement of carbon dioxide inside the leaf. But, again it is not the photosynthetic organelle.
Now, the option C is the chloroplast. Chloroplast (it is actually a type of plant’s special pigmented plastid), a photosynthetic organelle where a pigment called chlorophyll (this pigment is useful in photosynthesis as we already know) is present and thylakoid is a part of it. The entire process of photosynthesis is carried out in the chloroplast present in the leaves of the plants.
Now when we talk about thylakoid, which is the Option D. Here thylakoid is basically the part of a photosynthetic organelle.

Here, from the above explanation we can say that option ‘C’ is the correct answer./

Note: Chloroplast (it is actually a type of plant’s special pigmented plastid), a photosynthetic organelle where a pigment called chlorophyll (this pigment is useful in photosynthesis as we already know) is present and thylakoid is a part of it. The entire process of photosynthesis is carried out in the chloroplast present in the leaves of the plants.
