Solution

The correct option is D Chloroplasts.
In plants, RuBisCO is an enzyme found in the chloroplast that plays a role in Calvin cycle in photosynthesis. It reacts with RuBP (ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate) to produce enediol and next with carbon dioxide which changes to PGA (3-phosphoglycerate) after few intermediates. Thus the correct answer is option D.
