Solution

The correct option is B Chloroplasts
Photosynthesis is a process in which plants manufacture their own food with the help of water, carbon dioxide and sunlight. It takes place in the chloroplast of a cell and contains the green pigment chlorophyll what is necessary for photosynthesis. Thus, chloroplasts are known as food factories of the plant cell.
So, the correct answer is 'Chloroplast.'
