What do chloroplasts contain that allow them to use energy from the sun to make glucose?

  1. Ribosomes

  2. Chlorophyll

  3. Mitochondria

  4. Enzymes

The correct answer is: Chlorophyll

Chloroplasts are plant cell organelles responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which they convert sunlight into energy in the form of glucose. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a green pigment found in plants, which is responsible for absorbing light energy from the sun. Ribosomes, mitochondria, and enzymes do not have the ability to capture energy from sunlight and are not involved in the process of photosynthesis. Therefore, they are not contained in chloroplasts.
