The answer is the fourth one: Chloroplast.

Explanation for each option:

  • Ribosomes: These are the organelles responsible for protein synthesis. They do not play a role in photosynthesis or the creation of stored chemical energy.

  • Vacuole: This organelle is primarily involved in storage and maintaining the cell's internal environment. It does not directly participate in photosynthesis.

  • Golgi Apparatus: This organelle is involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell. It is not involved in photosynthesis.

  • Chloroplast: This is the correct answer. Chloroplasts are the organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs. They capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy stored in glucose, a process that is essential for the energy supply of the plant.

In summary, chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for creating stored chemical energy through photosynthesis.
