Solution

The correct option is B Chloroplast
Mitochondria produces the energy thus, called as a power house of cell.
The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in correct and functional folding of newly formed protein molecules and their transport the synthesized proteins in vesicles to Golgi apparatus or Golgi body.
Golgi body is secretory of the cell. It has the main function of modifying, sorting and packaging the proteins which are synthesized by cells.
The kitchen is the place where eatables (in utilizable form) are made by mixing the ingredients together. Chloroplast also converts inorganic molecules (CO2 and H2O) to glucose thus, called as kitchen of the cell.
