Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three organelles found closely associated with each other in a leaf and cooperating with each other in such a way that products of one organelle serve as substrates in another are mitochondria, chloroplasts, and peroxisomes. Mitochondria produce ATP through cellular respiration which is required by chloroplasts for the process of photosynthesis. Peroxisomes produce and break down hydrogen peroxide, which is used in various metabolic processes in both chloroplasts and mitochondria. Therefore, option D is the correct choice.
