Chloroplasts:

Trivia: Chloroplasts are responsible for carrying out photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. They contain chlorophyll, a pigment that gives plants their green color and helps absorb light. Without chloroplasts, plants would not be able to produce food and oxygen, making life on Earth very different.
