overview of photosynthesis
photosynthesis is a process in which sunlight energy is used to make glucose. the site of photosynthesis
is in the chloroplast - an organelles found in the leaves of green plants. the main function of chloroplasts
are to produce food (glucose) during photosynthesis and to store food energy.
chloroplasts are double membrane organelles with a
smooth outer membrane and an inner membrane folded
into disc - shaped sacs called thylakoids. thylakoids,
containing chlorophyll and other accessory pigments
red, orange, yellow, brown, are in stacks called grana
grana, plural. grana are connected to each other by
structures called lamellae, and they are surrounded by a
gel - like material called stroma.

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are organelles involved in photosynthesis. As per the provided text, they are found in the leaves of green plants. Roots do not perform photosynthesis (lack chloroplasts for this purpose), animal cells do not have chloroplasts (as animals do not photosynthesize), and prokaryotic cells (which lack membrane - bound organelles like chloroplasts) also do not have them.

Answer:

leaves of green plants
