Final answer:

The statement that chloroplasts combine carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen, a process known as photosynthesis, is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chloroplast in the plant cell combines carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) to produce glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and O₂ gas during a process known as photosynthesis. This question appears to have missing phrases.

The correct and full statement would be: 'The chloroplast in the plant cell combines carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) to produce glucose (sugars/carbohydrates) and oxygen (O₂) gas.' Therefore, the answer to the original question would be true.

Photosynthesis in plant cells combines carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen gas.

This process occurs in the chloroplasts of the cells, where the chlorophyll pigment captures sunlight energy and converts it into chemical energy to drive the reaction.
