Answer is Chloroplasts have their own DNA.

Chloroplasts and mitochondria are the two cell organelles which have their own DNA. This DNA is separate from the DNA which is found in the nucleus of the cell. The DNA of both chloroplast and mitochondria can replicates and both can undergoes division. The DNA of both organelles produce many proteins and enzymes required for their function.
