Which of the following is a true statement about chloroplasts?

























 



A.





They transport glucose into the cell.
























 



B.





They convert light energy into chemical energy.
























 



C.





They are present in animal cells, but not in plant cells.
























 



D.





They convert the energy in glucose into a more usable form.



Sagot :

the answer is b because the chloroplasts make energy from sunlight.

Chloroplasts absorbs energy from the light from the sun to transform inorganic molecules (like water and carbon dioxide) into organic molecules (i.e. sugars like glucose). Chloroplasts are found in plant cells, which undergo a lot of photosynthesis in order to provide energy to the plant.

Mitochondria are the organelles that take the glucose to break it down and use the energy to fuel the cell.

Therefore, answer B is correct. Hope this helps! :)
