Question
- where are the chloroplasts located? *
○ in the nucleus
○ in the cytoplasm
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells (and some protists). The nucleus is the control center of the cell containing genetic material, while the cytoplasm is the gel - like substance within the cell where organelles are suspended. Chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis, are located in the cytoplasm of plant cells. The option "in the nucleus" is incorrect because the nucleus does not house chloroplasts.
