Answer:

(1) Chloroplast

Step-by-step explanation:

Cells of living organisms are made up of certain function-specific structures called ORGANELLES. Some organelles are present in plant cells and absent in animal cells and vice versa. In a plant cell, one notable organelle that allows it perform the photosynthetic process is the CHLOROPLAST.

However, the chloroplast is predominantly found in the LEAF part of a plant. This is because leaf cells are the site of photosynthesis. Hence, according to this question, Joe would be able to tell whether the plant cell was from the leaf or the root by looking for CHLOROPLAST as a differentiating factor in each cell.
