To answer this question we need to analyze the function of each organelle quoted.

Golgi apparatus is in charge of packaging proteins to export inside and outside the cell, so this is found in both cell types.

Mitochondria, this organelle is in charge of the process known as cellular respiration, specifically the respiratory chain, where ATP the energetic coin of the organisms is generated in great quantities so, is also found in both cell types.

Chloroplasts, this organelle is in charge of the photosynthetic process specifically photosystems I and II, where photons hit chlorophylls and start the photosynthetic reaction, only photosynthetic organisms possess chloroplasts, so this can be found in plants and algae. Therefore option C is the correct answer.
