The answer is the first one: chloroplast.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Chloroplast: This is the correct answer. Chloroplasts are the organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis takes place. They contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.

  2. Nucleus: This is incorrect. The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing the cell's genetic material, but it is not involved in photosynthesis.

  3. Ribosome: This is incorrect. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis, not photosynthesis.

  4. Mitochondria: This is incorrect. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, where cellular respiration occurs to produce energy in the form of ATP, but they do not perform photosynthesis.

In summary, the site of photosynthesis in plant cells is the chloroplast.
