Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
In green plants, photosynthesis takes place in Chloroplasts.
Leaves are ideal for photosynthesis because they are usually broad and flat, giving plenty of surface area for light to be absorbed.
The chloroplast is the site of photosynthesis. Part of the photosynthesis reactions occurs in an internal membrane within the organelle. The chloroplast contains many of these internal membranes, making photosynthesis very efficient.
