Answer:


\boxed {\tt Chloroplasts}

Step-by-step explanation:

In some organisms (plants, algae, types of bacteria) there are chloroplasts in the cells.

A process called photosynthesis occurs at these organelles. Let's look at the photosynthesis equation.

6CO₂+6H₂O+light energy --> C₆H₁₂O₆+6O₂

Carbon dioxide, water, and energy from the sun become glucose/sugar and oxygen.

Since photosynthesis produces sugar and photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast. So the organelle that produces sugar is chloroplasts.
