~CHLOROPLAST~
The Best Organelle In the Celluverse!!
*Reasons why chloroplast is the best organelle*
- Chloroplasts are the source of virtually all of the world's food and fuel and much of its oxygen supply, and as such life on Earth depends on them.
- When chloroplast absorbs the energy of the sun, it turns the energy into sugars known as the process of photosynthesis and is a life time supply of food that is easy to obtain.
- as well as making sugars (or glucose) chloroplast is also responsible for making other important plant products such as fats, oils, proteins and scents that are used to making perfumes or colognes.
- If every organism had chloroplast organelles every organism would never be hungry.
- Chloroplast uses sunlight, water, and Co2 to make sugars/glucose and releases oxygen into the atmosphere and benefits any living organism.

The chloroplast has an important role, but it is not useful without the mitochondria. The mitochondria makes energy out of food, while the chloroplasts create the food during photosynthesis. Therefore, without the mitochondria playing a role of forming ATP to power the cell, the plants would not be able to obtain energy to carry out photosynthesis.
