Answer:

Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the sun into sugars that can be used by cells.

Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts because they do photosynthesize.

CHLOROPLAST:

  • Chloroplast is a membrane-bound organelle found in certain eukaryotic cells that have the ability to synthesize their own food e.g. plant cells.

  • Chloroplast organelle contains a pigment called CHLOROPHYLL which captures light energy from the sun. The energy is used to synthesize glucose in plant cells.

  • Animal cells, on the other hand, are heterotrophic i.e. cannot produce their own food and hence depend on other organisms. Animal cells cannot produce their own food because they do not contain the chloroplast organelle.
