The answer is chloroplasts.
Cell membrane:in animal cells, this separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space)
Cell wall: in plant cells, gives the cell a rigid rectangular shape, helps to keep the organelles inside the cell, and does not let the cell burst due to changes in pressure.
Chloroplast: in plant cells, allows for photosynthesis, traps energy from sunlight
Endoplasmic reticulum: translation and folding of new proteins
Flagellum: Helps a cell move (not all cells have these)
Golgi apparatus: sorting, packaging, processing and modification of proteins
Mitochondrion: Produces energy in the form of ATP
Nucleus: contains DNA, controls all activities of the cell, performs RNA transcription
Vacuole: stores nutrients, transportation, helps maintain homeostasis

The answer is chloroplasts.
Plants and animals are both organisms, meaning that like other living things, they are composed of cells. Both types of cells store food in vacuoles, have cytoplasm, golgi bodies, and ribosomes, but they have a number of distinct differences as well. Animal cells have a membrane and are more irregularly shaped, while plant cells have a cell wall and are rectangular. Additionally, plant cells have organelles called chloroplasts, which aid in the process of photosynthesis.
