Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

In 1854, Julius Von Sachs proved that glucose is produced during the process of photosynthesis in the green parts of the plant. He also found that starch is the storage form of glucose in plants. Furthermore, he showed that chloroplast is the cell organelle that houses the green pigment chlorophyll in plants.
