Penicillin is an antibiotic drug that is derived from the fungal species of Penicillium molds especially the<em> Penicillium notatum</em>. The penicillin acts by disrupting the formation of the cell wall and thus prevents the growth of the bacteria.
The discovery of penicillin was accidental when he was studying the petridish of staphylococcus and he found that due to avoidance while the experiment, molds grew in the petridish. The area around the mold was clear and clear rings without the bacteria were easily observed. This lead to the discovery of the penicillin compound.
The answer is chloroplast; the actions you describe are part of the photosynthetic process and the chloroplast is involved in photosynthesis. I hope I helped! :D
