Which of the groups of structures listed below contains chloroplast?
Answer Details
The chloroplast is the organelle in plant cells that is responsible for photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants make food. To identify which group of structures contains chloroplasts, we need to look for structures involved in photosynthesis. Structures I and II are not involved in photosynthesis. Structure VII is the mitochondria which are responsible for cellular respiration, which is the process by which cells convert nutrients into energy. Therefore, option B is also incorrect. Structures III, VIII, and IX are involved in photosynthesis and structure XI is the vacuole which is responsible for storing water and other substances. Therefore, the correct answer is option C: III, VIII, and IX.
