Chloroplast .
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are processes carried out in separate organelles within the cell. Cellular respiration occurs within mitochondria present in all living cells - both plant and animal. Photosynthesis occurs within the chloroplasts of plant cells only.
The Mitochondria.
The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
The presence of chlorophyll is vital in order for the plant to carry out photosynthesis. Of course, chloroplasts (an organelle found in most plant cells), must be present.
cellular respiration occurs at all times (essential to stay alive) photosythesis only occurs when a light source is present (so not at night)

Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplast.It is only present in plant cells.Other photosynthetic organisms have photosynthetic membranes.
The Mitochondria.
The chloroplast is the main component/organelle in the process of photosynthesis. Also this organelle is unique to plant cells.
chloroplasts, because photsynthesis only occurs in plants, not animals

An organelle can be present in both animal and plant cells. An organelle refers to the parts of the cell that have specific tasks, for example, the mitochrondrion is used to metabloise energy for the cell. Organelles such as the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum are present in all cells but some are specific, e.g. chloroplast are only found in plant cells. In a way they are like organs in the body, but at a cellular level. Note I am only referring to eukaryotic organisms. check out this site for more info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organelle
If oxygen were not produced during photosynthesis then organisms could not perform cellular respiration. This means that they couldn't produce carbon dioxide which would make the plants unable to undergo photosynthesis.
a chloroplast, which captures sunlight for photosynthesis

They contain photosynthetic pigments. They carry out photosynthesis.
